Dear list,
The Sound and Technology Working Group
<https://www.chstm.org/content/sound-and-technology> at the Consortium for
the History of Science, Technology, and Medicine (CHSTM) invites you to
participate in a series of workshops starting in September 2021.
Each monthly session – to take place on Zoom – will feature a moderated
discussion of a new or recently published work by a scholar working in the
area of the history of sound and technology, broadly construed. Readings
will be pre-circulated in advance of each session.
Researchers at all levels are invited, though we especially welcome
graduate students and early-career researchers.
If you are interested in participating, please create an account at the
CHSTM website (https://www.chstm.org/) and join the working group (
https://www.chstm.org/content/sound-and-technology). You will then receive
updates on the group's activities through this site.
A short description of the scope of the working group and a schedule for
the first semester of meetings follows. This initiative builds on the
activities of the TAXIS reading group (https://taxis.hcommons.org), whose
members generously contributed to its conception and planning.
Please do not hesitate to contact the conveners if you have any questions
or comments about the group. We look forward to your participation!

*Group summary*
The Sound and Technology working group is concerned with scholarship coming
> from the history of technology and science, towards a history of sonic
> technocultures. This group welcomes scholars interested in sound and sound
> technology from all time periods, though the group’s reading and writing
> will focus on cases, debates, and actors that engage the conditions of
> sound’s technological reproducibility since the late 19th century. Because
> of the interdisciplinary nature of the topic, relevant studies have been
> fragmented across a variety of fields within the humanities, arts, social
> sciences, engineering, acoustics, and the sciences. This working group will
> work across these disciplines to collectively interpret sources and
> commentary that share an interest in sound.
