What is the relationship of time to sociality? How can sound convey the sense of being in a place; how can rhythm construct forms of simultaneity, unison, or conflict –– “dis-unison”? How do space and time challenge listening: together, in a live, performative situation, or in a broadcast, simultaneous but separate?
Monday, May 15: Join Cornell musicologist Benjamin Piekut, specialist in post-1960s experimentalism, and New York sound-installation artist and turntablist Marina Rosenfeld, in an event exploring the relations of listening and behaviour in the social and creative realms.
