Post-graduate Research Event

We invite submissions for 10 minute contributions relating to aspects of research in
the context of sound, in its various creative and theoretical forms, and gender. 
This is an open call and we welcome responses from all relevant disciplines and will
accept a variety of formats from short academic presentations to more experimental
contributions.

We are looking to share research with a view to establishing a network of
researchers and practitioners working in these areas.  The final format of the event
will be generated around the contributions received.

Please send expressions of interest, including the theme, topic and format of your
presentation, of around 100 words and a short biography of no more than 100 words by

This event follows on from
?Her Noise Archive Symposium
3-5 May 2012
Tate Modern

A three day event investigating feminist discourses in sound, launching with a
performance and talk by Pauline Oliveros. The symposium, which brings together
contributions by leading artists, performers, theoreticians and writers aims to
provide a platform to further develop these emergent feminist discourses in sound
and music, with an emphasis on tactics that challenge and / or infiltrate canonical
readings. The event marks the donation of the Her Noise Archive to University of the
Arts London Archives and Special Collections housed at London College of
Communication, and is realised as a collaboration between CRiSAP (Creative Research
in Sound Arts Practice), Electra and Tate.
