Located Sounds: The Place of Sound in Research<\/p>\n
Friday, April 29, 10:00am – 12:00pm, University Club 313<\/p>\n
In this workshop, Dr. Aslinger will discuss a few of his current research projects, with a special emphasis on sound and place, and sound and subjectivity. Looking at some of his research on the popular music industries, and on video game and television sound, the workshop will deal with the question: “How do sounds get fixed to place and identities, and how do we deal with sonic travels and sonic particularities?” The workshop is also meant for participants to share some of their own current research projects, and to reflect on the role of sound both as a research object and as a methodological tool.<\/p>\n
Ben Aslinger<\/strong> is an Associate Professor in the Department of English and Media Studies at Bentley University. He is the coeditor (with Nina Huntemann) of Gaming Globally: Production, Play, and Place (Palgrave 2013) and coeditor (with Germaine R. Halegoua) of Locating Emerging Media (Routledge 2016).

Mellon Foundation.<\/p>","excerpt":" In this workshop, Dr. Aslinger will discuss a few of his current research projects, with a special emphasis on sound and place, and sound and subjectivity.<\/p>","slug":"ben-aslinger-located-sounds","image":{"url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/noise.jpg","id":206,"extension":"jpg","width":1900,"height":775,"sizes":{"thumbnail":{"width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/noise-150x150.jpg"},"medium":{"width":300,"height":122,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/noise-300x122.jpg"},"large":{"width":1024,"height":418,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/noise-1024x418.jpg"},"fullframe-featured-content":{"width":400,"height":225,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/noise-400x225.jpg"},"fullframe-slider":{"width":1680,"height":720,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/noise-1680x720.jpg"},"fullframe-featured":{"width":860,"height":484,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/noise-860x484.jpg"},"sow-carousel-default":{"width":272,"height":182,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/noise-272x182.jpg"}}},"all_day":false,"start_date":"2016-04-29 10:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2016","month":"04","day":"29","hour":"10","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2016-04-29 12:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2016","month":"04","day":"29","hour":"12","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2016-04-29 15:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2016","month":"04","day":"29","hour":"15","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2016-04-29 17:00:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2016","month":"04","day":"29","hour":"17","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"America\/Chicago","timezone_abbr":"CDT","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"","show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[],"tags":[],"venue":{"id":172,"author":"2","status":"publish","date":"2015-10-16 16:43:31","date_utc":"2015-10-16 16:43:31","modified":"2015-10-16 16:43:31","modified_utc":"2015-10-16 16:43:31","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/venue\/university-club-room-313\/","venue":"University Club, Room 313","slug":"university-club-room-313","address":"803 State Street","city":"Madison","country":"United States","state":"WI","zip":"53703","stateprovince":"WI","json_ld":{"@type":"Place","name":"University Club, Room 313","description":"","url":false,"address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","streetAddress":"803 State Street","addressLocality":"Madison","addressRegion":"WI","postalCode":"53703","addressCountry":"United States"},"telephone":"","sameAs":""},"show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"global_id":"soundstudies.wisc.edu?id=172","global_id_lineage":["soundstudies.wisc.edu?id=172"]},"organizer":[{"id":160,"author":"2","status":"publish","date":"2015-10-16 16:15:20","date_utc":"2015-10-16 16:15:20","modified":"2015-11-04 18:25:04","modified_utc":"2015-11-04 18:25:04","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/organizer\/brogues-mellon-sound-studies-workshop\/","organizer":"Borghesi-Mellon Sound Studies Workshop","slug":"brogues-mellon-sound-studies-workshop","website":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu","json_ld":{"@type":"Person","name":"Borghesi-Mellon Sound Studies Workshop","description":"","url":false,"telephone":"","email":"","sameAs":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu"},"global_id":"soundstudies.wisc.edu?id=160","global_id_lineage":["soundstudies.wisc.edu?id=160"]}],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Ben Aslinger – Located Sounds","description":"<p>In this workshop, Dr. Aslinger will discuss a few of his current research projects, with a special emphasis on sound and place, and sound and subjectivity.<\/p>\\n","image":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/noise.jpg","url":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu\/event\/ben-aslinger-located-sounds\/","startDate":"2016-04-29T10:00:00-05:00","endDate":"2016-04-29T12:00:00-05:00","location":{"@type":"Place","name":"University Club, Room 313","description":"","url":false,"address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","streetAddress":"803 State Street","addressLocality":"Madison","addressRegion":"WI","postalCode":"53703","addressCountry":"United States"},"telephone":"","sameAs":""},"organizer":{"@type":"Person","name":"Borghesi-Mellon Sound Studies Workshop","description":"","url":false,"telephone":"","email":"","sameAs":"http:\/\/soundstudies.wisc.edu"}}}
