Lecture by Prof. Gascia Ouzounian:
Gascia Ouzounian is a musicologist and sonic theorist whose work examines sound in relation to space, architecture, urbanism, and violence. She is associate professor of music at the University of Oxford, where she leads the European Research Council-funded project Sonorous Cities: Towards a Sonic Urbanism (soncities.org). Ouzounian is the author of Stereophonica: Sound and Space in Science, Technology, and the Arts (MIT Press, 2021), and she has contributed articles to leading journals of music, visual art, and architecture. Recent projects include Acoustic Cities: London & Beirut, for which she invited ten artists to create works responding to the sonic, social, and spatial conditions of London and Beirut. Her current book project, The Trembling City, listens to cities that were sites of historical violence, including cities of the Ottoman Empire during the Armenian Genocide.
