Conference & CfP: Sound Art Matters, 1-4 June 2016


SOUND ART MATTERS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOUND ART

JUNE 1-4, 2016 AARHUS UNIVERSITY, DENMARK

The current art field is full of sound: audible and inaudible, infrasound, ultrasound, sound machines, sound installations, field recordings, digital sounds, biological sounds, sound walks, sounds from instruments, voices, nature, sonifications of data and so on. Sound art comprises a wide range of different artistic practices in which sound is a central element. It occurs in a variety of formats and contexts, crossing conventional boundaries between art genres and institutions. Despite this abundance of sonic expressions, sound art is still, as Christoph Cox noted in 2011, ‘profoundly undertheorized’.
