Sounding the Present: Four Public Lectures on Sound, Place, and Contemporary Life

Sounding the Present brings together four artists and researchers exploring sound as an artistic medium, a social practice, and a way of understanding the world around us. Moving between urban environments, ecological relationships, and the politics of everyday listening, this series invites us to consider how sound shapes our experiences of place, our relationships with one another, and our understanding of a changing world.
