*Conference*: Sensing the Sonic: Histories of Hearing Differently (1800-now)
*When*: 15-16 June 2018
*Where*: CRASSH, University of Cambridge
*Outline*: What happens when hearing doesn't do what it purportedly should?
Often hearing and sound are predominately considered from an ear-centric
perspective. We will explore alternatives to this singular ear, engaging
various historical, theoretical and methodological positions. Putting
forward an exploratory format, participants will ignite discussions that
challenge notions of embodied presence and investigate different materials
and research strategies for hearing differently from the 19th century to
the present.
*Speakers include*: Zeynep Bulut, Melissa Dickson, Nina Eidsheim, Bastien
Gallet, Julian Henriques, Douglas Kahn, Seth Kim-Cohen, Aleks Kolkowski,
Sander van Maas, Mara Mills, Gascia Ouzounian, Matthieu Saladin, Holger
Schulze, Jonathan Sterne, David Trippett, and Shelley Trower.
