Sure, let's make more announcements at 8:30pm on a Tuesday night, why not.

Hey, people! I'm on the editorial board of #Resonance: The Journal of Sound and Culture, and we are seeking submissions. Please think about putting something in if you are an academic, artist, or ghastly hybrid working on #sound #SoundStudies #SoundArt

Just a quick heads-up to let you know that "A Year of Deep Listening" is live on indiegogo!

#Hearing is a special sense for me, and I actually record sounds for fun, so I am starting a new reading: "The #sounscape. Our #sonicenvironment and the #tunning of the world"

I understand #MurraySchafer is a huge reference in #soundstudies, and I have never read a book on this subject, so it made sense to me to start with him.

We will have a little launch event on July 4. Please come by, should you happen to be in #Berlin https://www.soundofnature.eu/launch #envhum #envhist #soundscape #soundstudies Cake will be served!

Day two of being a panel chair / zoom tech / general support staff for the SpokenWeb Symposium. Yesterday was exhilarating and exhausting. Looking forward to what today will bring!

#conference #SoundStudies #academia #IndependentScholar #DigitalHumanities

Day one of the #SpokenWeb #Symposium: I am exhausted by 4pm. There's still four more hours to go.

I think part of the reason I'm so tired is because the talks have been so intellectually stimulating and incredibly engaging, and the people so great, that I've been acting like an extrovert because I truly love this and want to be part of everything.

The inevitable crash is happening now, of course.

I hadn't put out an issue of This Week in Sound in a few months, but managed one last Friday, then this Tuesday, and now today, which happens to be April 14th, or "Avril 14th" to Aphex Twin fans. Today's issue has three items: select covers of that now classic song; a distinction in anxiety around AI as it pertains to music; and a review of a recent documentary about the band Negativland. The cover image is from Stephen Newhouse’s lovely arrangement of "Avril 14th" for music box, embedded in the issue, which is at thisweekinsound.substack.com.
