The SSI lecture series occurs once or twice a month during the academic year, typically on Wednesdays between 5:30pm and 6:30pm, and include diverse topics related to sound research, scholarship, and artistic explorations with sound. Some special events or guest lectures may fall on different days or times to accommodate guest speaker availability.
We may add special events throughout the year. Please check back often!
Join us for in-person lectures at the Sound Studies Institute, Room 3-47 in the Old Arts & Convocation Hall building. Click here for directions. Please check individual event information for specifics.
