Peter Nelson – Phrase and Gesture: the timing and syntax of sounds
|
“How do sounds add up? What pulls moments together into meaningful strands? Whether sounds are static, rhythmic or fleeting, they carry us with them in ways that determine senses of speed, character and emotion. This talk concerns not just sounds themselves, but also the social practices that determine our listening, as well as our perceptions of temporality.”

Sean Williams – From centimetres to seconds: sound design’s shift from technical serialism to musically informed performance practice in the 1950s WDR Studio, Cologne
Music made in the West Deutsche Rundfunk Studio for Electronic Music in the 1950s was characterized by a strict serialist determination of all sound parameters. In Karlheinz Stockhausen’s Studie II, and Gesang der Jünglinge, sounds as short as 0.05 seconds

Richard Coyne – Why sound reaches the parts architecture can’t
“Physical spaces are charged with meaning and emotion for most of us — some spaces more than others. But it’s rare to enter a building or encounter spectacular scenery and experience the same intensity of emotion many of us feel

Panel discussion – Scaling to fit and coping with detail
Sound is data. Alterations in the structure of data can create events of audible and emotional value. Delayed and modulated samples create filters, an array of samples create microseconds of a wavetable, milliseconds and seconds of samples create distinguishable sound events.

Keynote – Joe Banks – Sound Art as Mainstream Cultural Commodity
Author and sound artist Joe Banks argues in his book “Rorschach Audio – Art & Illusion for Sound” that “the earliest form of sound recording technology was not a machine but was written language”. Extrapolating this argument, Joe Banks discusses

Panel discussion – sound design and violence
Sounds are made when surfaces meet and resist. If the resulting vibrations are constrained, funnelled and pressurised down tubes, across vent holes and around resonant cavities we can design either a musical instrument or a sonic weapon. Sound touches at
