Centrum Sonic Lecture 3: Spectres of Sound Reproduction Rachel O’Dwyer 19.00 Sonntag, Dezember 11, 2011
Using a variety of examples from early recordings, sonic arts, contemporary and popular music, this lecture will explore themes such as time, presence, preservation and decay in sound recording from the Victorian era through to recent digital recording and remastering, and examine how the spectre of the past continues to haunt contemporary listening practices, musical genres and in particular our understandings of analogue and digital sound reproduction. (Rachel O’Dwyer)
Rachel O’Dwyer, teaches at Trinity College, Dublin and is Editor of Interference (A Journal of Audio Culture). The third lecture in the series at Centrum, Spectres of Sound Reproduction focuses on an area of music described as 'Hauntology'. Centrum's programme has already included other 'Hauntological' artists and nights including the Wolpertinger nights and collaborations with Leyland James Kirby (last month) and Position Normal (June 2010) who performed here.
Centrum will be open from 18.45, the lecture starts at 19.00, please arrive early
