Sound Matters: a creative framework is a research project lead by Ximena Alarcón & Cathy Lane, funded by JISC.
Sound Matters brings together an interdisciplinary community working in the creative use and re-use of sound, specifically field recordings and speech. The aim is to create together a framework that facilitates the interrogation and relational playback of sound in its own terms.
The Online Gathering is the second stage of this research project, it calls for open participation.
We welcome you to get involved by contributing to the Creative Framework with your practice and experience, as well as giving feedback about the ‘Stories’ which have derived from interviews with interdisciplinary academics and practitioners who use field recording and speech.
