Since the onset of the 2019 novel coronavirus pandemic, the world has been in a state of sonic flux. Neighborhoods and cities fell silent, front porches and balconies became temporary stages for community musicking, and the 24-hour news cycle was recomposed to a soundtrack of sirens and medical alarms. Environmental change was activated through the intersecting forces of sound and silence in a highly dynamic, relational process: one that has been interpreted by many as a significant indicator of community change triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. Underpinning many of these sonic changes is an increasingly-blurred division between medical environments and everyday spaces, whereby medical(ized) sounds have become part of the daily pandemic soundscape.In this dissertation I offer a trauma-informed approach to viral acoustemologies-ways of knowing through sound. My discussion focuses around three pandemic sonic archetypes: noise, silence, and music. Within each, I unpack the intersecting ways that sound has factored into individual and collective experiences of the COVID-19 virus, its resulting restrictions, and its ongoing effects. I synthesize extensive ethnographic research with those most at-risk of infection-the disabled, the chronically ill, and frontline medical workers-to amplify the voices of communities navigating precarious, unique, and extended relationships to the virus. These are the precarious bodies of the title. Listening with attention and care to their altered pandemic acoustemologies, I ask how perceptions of embodiment, relationality, and temporality are disrupted and extended in the era of COVID-19. I further consider how listening through medicalization reveals the multifaceted roles music and sound play in the ongoing negotiation of public health, collectivity, and wellbeing. In doing so, I consider how sonic shifts anticipate both interpersonal and sociocultural change. My discussion does not simply reveal multiple ways of listening in the era of COVID-19, though there are many. It also meaningfully demonstrates the importance of sound in navigating trauma. COVID-19 listening praxes are case studies in dynamic, relational, and embodied positionalities, laced with fear and traumatic stress. Thus, the COVID-19 era amplifies the affective resonances of ongoing traumas imprinted-sometimes variously-on listening bodyminds. Ultimately, this research reveals that who we are impacts how we listen, in both quotidian and medical(ized) spaces. The affective and interpretive shifts instigated by COVID-19, as experienced in our listening practices, continue to linger in the aftermath of traumatic stress. After all, how our precarious bodies relate to the world has shifted. So, too, has our listening.
