Jacek Smolicki (born during martial law in Kraków) is a Stockholm-based cross-disciplinary artist, designer, researcher and educator. His work explores temporal, existential and technological dimensions of listening, recording and archiving practices in human and more-than-human realms.

His research spans perspectives from Sound and Media Studies, Media Archaeology, Philosophy of Technology, and Environmental Humanities.

Besides engaging with historical archives, media, and heritage, Smolicki develops other modes of sensing, recording, and mediating stories and signals from specific sites, scales, and temporalities. His work is manifested through hybrid soundwalks, soundscape compositions, diverse forms of writing, site-responsive performances, experimental archives, and audio-visual installations.

He has performed, published, and exhibited internationally (e.g. In-Sonora Madrid, Atlantic Center for the Arts, Moscow International Biennale for Young Art, AudioArt Kraków, Ars Electronica, Linz, Sonorities, Belfast, and Historical Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sarajevo). His broad range of site-responsive artistic and research activities includes projects concerned with the soundscapes and timescapes of multiple sites. (2025)
