SUMMARY:Colloquium: Jin Qiu (Melbourne)
DESCRIPTION:How We Used to Endure Noise: The Emergence of Auditory Order in Modern China \nIn this colloquium\, Jin Qiu will use Lao She’s 1930s short story Sound Film and other Republican-era novels\, diaries\, and memoirs to reconstruct early Chinese cinema as a sonically contested public space. Tracing loud talk\, commentary\, coughing\, and audience disputes—practices inherited from opera-theatre culture—they will show how silent spectatorship emerged as a historically produced discipline and how “noise” became newly framed as incivility.

SUMMARY:5th International Conference "Power\, Identities and Images of Cities: Music and Ceremonial Books in Western Europe\, from the Middle Ages to Modernity"
DESCRIPTION:12-13 December\, 2025 | Malaga\, Spain | online\nParticipation is free of charge\, online and in person. Register here: http://u.uma.es/g9N/ \nThe focal point of this fifth edition of the International Conference Power\, identities and images of cities: Music and ceremonial books in Western Europe\, from the Middle Ages to Modernity (University of Málaga\, 12–13 December 2025\, online) is the study of royal proclamations and funerary ceremonies of the Spanish Bourbons during the period 1700–1843. These topics constitute the core of the research project Ad honorem regis (PID2024-160998NB-I00)\, funded by the Spanish National Research Plan with European funds\, and co-organizer of the conference together with the Faculty of Arts and Humanities of the University of Málaga. \nThe conference brings together international specialists to examine\, from the perspectives of Cultural History\, the History of Mentalities\, Art History\, and Musicology\, urban ceremonial practices\, visual and sonic languages\, and the forms of power representation deployed in royal proclamations and funerary celebrations held in various cities of peninsular Spain. It also explores the potential of Digital Humanities to reconsider and expand the traditional methodologies applied to the study of these phenomena\, particularly regarding the treatment and analysis of their sources. The event is supported by a range of scholarly societies\, cultural institutions\, and international research networks. \nThe programme is available here: Programme

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Julia Samp (Aachen) & Hannah Potthof (Chemnitz)
DESCRIPTION:Historical Perspectives on Medieval Sound(s) and Soundscapes \nHow do historians concieve sound\, think about it\, and do sound research? What can other disciplines\, namely musicology\, learn from historians’ approach? These questions will be addressed through two project presentations by Hannah Potthoff and Julia Samp\, who will present their dissertation projects considering medieval auditory perception\, interpretation\, and tradition. Their dissertations projects were funded by two DFG-funded projects\, “Belliphonie im Mittelalter” (TU Chemnitz\, 2021-2024) and “Lärm vor Dezibel” (RWTH Aachen University\, 2022-2025). \n\nMembers will receive the Zoom link automatically. If you are not a member of the group\, send us an email to receive a link.

SUMMARY:Reading Group: Reading Sound and Literature
DESCRIPTION:Despite its fundamental role as a historical source\, literature is rarely discussed within cultural sound studies. This autumn’s reading-group session will focus on recent contributions that explore the relationship between the written and auditory worlds. The discussion will open a broader conversation about how to write about sound and how sonic experience shapes literary creation. \nRegistration for this event is required.

SUMMARY:Sound and Space: A Multidisciplinary Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Athanasius Kircher\, Phonurgia nova\, 1673.\nFocusing on the variety of interactions of sound and space — how sound inhabits space\, shapes space\, and how it creates space — we will discuss this broad topic with a multidisciplinary group of scholars. Iva Grlić Radman (Basel) is an architect interested in contemporary spaces and sound\, Eduardo Carrero Santamaria (Barcelona) is an art historian focused on medieval sacred architecture and sound\, Ilaria Grippaudo (Palermo) is an early modern historical musicologist investigating the interaction of politics\, sound\, and space\, Zorana Đorđević (Barcelona) is an architect and archaeoacoustics scholar specialised in long-distance sonic communication\, and Salomé Voegelin (London) is a philosopher of sound and a sound artist focusing on sonic communication. \nFollowing the 10-minute presentations\, the floor will be open for questions and an open discussion. \nRegistration is necessary: click here to access the form.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Karl Kügle (Oxford) and Marc Lewon (Basel)
DESCRIPTION:VALSOUNDS. Reflections on the Digital Reconstruction of Early Valois Soundscapes \nFollowing a successful end of the transdisciplinary ERC-funded project at KU Leuven (2023-25)\, Karl Kügle (PI) and Marc Lewon will showcase the various stages of the research proecess and the auralisations created by the project.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Laudan Nooshin (London)
DESCRIPTION:Listening to Tehran: Sonic Palimpsests and Affective Historical Imaginaries \nThrough the more-than-sounds of sirens\, bombs and other sonic experiences during the missile strikes on Tehran in the later stages of the Iran-Iraq War (1980-88) in Azar Nafisi’s 2003 book\, Laudan Nooshin will investigate a profound entanglement of sound\, affect\, and memory\, and the intense somatic materiality of sound experienced through the entire body. Nooshin will draw on current research on the sound of Tehran to explore the entanglement and in particular the palimpsestic nature of historical soundspaces with their layered sonic archaeology.
