Centre for Sound, Technology and Culture

Active

Description

The Centre for Sound, Technology and Culture explores the technological and cultural aspects of sound. It is concerned with research and particularly practice as research, performance and discussion.

Sound is by nature an interdisciplinary topic of research, benefiting from the range of methodological approaches. The centre considers sound as media and as material – as physical phenomenon, social vector, or source of musical affect.

The centre maps the diversity of thinking across the sonic landscape, from sound studies to musical performance, from sound art to the sociology of music, from historical soundscapes to digital musicology.
