This seminar will present a series of case studies of how sound is encoded for the purpose of storage and reproduction. It will focus on graphic technologies of sound recording—notes, numbers, tablatures, symbols—as a framework to explore cultural motivations for sonic preservation/reproduction, and the impacts of that process on subject-formation and subjectivity. Thematically, the seminar is intentionally broad so as to encourage participants to explore their own interests within its framework.
