The overarching philosophy of SamiraĀ Agnihotri's research is ā€˜listeningĀ ecology,ā€™ which aims to draw attention to diverse voices ā€“ human and more-than-human, and in doing so, encourage people to listenĀ more -- to the sounds of nature around them, and to each other. Her work crosses disciplinary boundaries, from birdsong and bioacoustics to anthropology and linguistics, and is embedded in the eco-cultural landscape of the Biligiri Rangan Hills, where she has worked since 2004 in collaboration with the Solega people.
