radio cegeste occurs in live and event based situations but is also occasionally a recording project. it has released material on the labels winds measure, Consumer Waste, and/Oar, Idealstate, Flaming Pines, and Gruenrekorder. Sally’s sound work also includes related ongoing research into the materiality of recorded silence, the history of birdsong transcription, and the hauntology of extinction as a trace within sound archives, including the use of pre-electrical sonic inscription and playback mechanisms, such as 78rpm recordings, phonographic wax cylinders, and music boxes, to bring extinct birdsong back to audibility. these projects have been exhibited in galleries and project spaces in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Germany and the U.S.

sally's practice also spans radio documentary, critical writing, and curatorial and organisational work. Her interests include environmental history, post-humanism, the history of museums, ethno-ornithology, island ecologies, avian electomagnetic navigation, obsolete technologies, the poetics of erasure and the trace, the possiblity of locality within the globalised, and the cultural and historical situatedness of listening.
