OM DENNE EPISODE
In the third episode of the Blu Rose podcast, we dive into the world of sound and space with renowned musician, composer, and music researcher, Prof. Gascia Ouzounian. An Associate Professor of Music at the University of Oxford, and Fellow and Tutor at Lady Margaret Hall, Gascia heads the trailblazing SonCities ERC project. Her wide-ranging research delves into spatial audio, sound installations, and the history and aesthetics of electronic music.
Gascia shares her insights on interdisciplinary research, the fascinating concept of stereophonica, and the aesthetic, ethical, and political dimensions of sonic space. We discuss the materiality of sound, the latest spatial audio technologies, and their applications in various artistic fields. Additionally, Gascia provides an overview of her SonCities project, the importance of listening as a methodology for unlearning, and the power of sonic memories. As we explore the future of spatial sound research, we also touch upon balancing research interests with professional responsibilities and personal life. Join us for this enthralling conversation and discover the profound impact of sound and space on our sensory experiences.
