We’re delighted to be back for a new round of monthly sessions on material relating to sound, music and STS.

For our next two meetings we’ll be discussing Sound and Science regular Ed McKeon’s brand new book Heiner Goebbels and Curatorial Composing after Cage: From Staging Works to Musicalising Encounters (Cambridge University Press).

The sessions will take place on:

  • Monday November 28th, 16.30-18.00, Chapters 1-3, pp1-27
  • Friday December 16th, 16.30-18.00, Chapters 4-6, pp28-68

The link for both sessions is:  https://ucl.zoom.us/j/94545894737 We have the added bonus of course that Ed will be with us for both sessions. 

Please feel free to contact catherine.lucas.19@ucl.ac.uk if you have any questions or if you are having trouble getting hold of the text.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Best wishes, 
Cathy, Chiara, Maria & Elena
