I’ve officially started my PhD as part of the »Networked through Sound project«! My first research trip with @jprior.bsky.social and @sandrajasper.bsky.social to London was the perfect beginning. I’ve written a short blog post about it: www.geographie.nat.fau.de/first-resear...
A poster for an event at Microscope, Dalston, London. The background image is of a person holding a magnetic tape in the Wildlife and Environmental Sounds collection at the British Library. The foreground text reads as follows: "Animal archives, listening session, sonic conversation, 14.09, 5pm, Sandra Jasper and Jonathan Prior, part of the 2025 echolocation series, microscope, ticket link in bio, microscope@periscope.uk, 2-4 Tottenham Road, N1 4BZ, @micro__scope"
Second, we will be in conversation with Anton Spice at Microscope, an arts space in Dalston, London, on the 14th September.
Info and tickets here: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/echolocati...
A poster for the experimental archives conference 2025. Above a line drawing of an open suitcase that lies empty, text reads: "Experimental Archives conference 2025, Kingston School of Art, Kingston University, Courtyard Theatre, The Town House, 11th-12th September 2025, exploring archives as spaces of transformation, fragmentation, imagination, and experimentation across disciplines".
@sandrajasper.bsky.social and I will be presenting our ongoing wildlife sound archives research at two events in September.
First, we will give a keynote at the Experimental Archives conference at Kingston University (11th-12th September).
