Dear friends of SoundS,
We would like to invite you to our another edition of our sic! sound in context lecture series. This month's Lecture will be given Ania Maruschat, a Sound Studies and Energy Humanities scholar working at the intersection of listening, media aesthetics, and environmental thought. For this session titled ' Towards an Aesthetic Theory of Noise in the Anthropocene: From Disaster Radio Plays to the Sounding Crisis of Climate Change' she will be discussing what aesthetic noise can teach us about how to perceive, understand, and live in the Anthropocene. Drawing on her doctoral work on the epistemology of radiophonic noise and my Marie-Curie research project “Sounding Crisis”, she will explore how noise, interference, disruption and listening can function as modes of understanding phenomena that resist visual mastery — from technological breakdowns to planetary hyperobjects.
The session takes place on Wednesday, December 10 at 7pm at our usual spot on Lietzenburger Straße 45, 10789 Berlin, Room 315.
We would also like to draw your attention to a new series of student testimonial videos which have now been posted to our website. Featuring recent SoundS graduates Simina Oprescu, Antonino Modica and Kika Echeverria, these videos provide a perspective on what studying the Sound Studies and Sonic Arts MA is like through the eyes of our students. A big thanks to Thomas Lea Clarke, Elisa Visca, Zach Hart and Victor Yrigoyen for their work in producing these videos.
And finally, a reminder that tomorrow night - 6th December - we have the Echoes of Synthesis II event taking place at Studio dB where current SoundS students will be sharing new audiovisual performances that have been developed as part of our Focus Phase AV block course under the guidance of faculty members Jan Thoben, Martin Sulzer and professor Daisuke Ishida.
The event will open at 19:30 | Tickets cost €5-€10 | Studio dB is located at Uferstrasse 8-11, 13357 Berlin
Hope to see you there,
|
