"Admirably, this book demands a full-blown reappraisal of the electroacoustic canon and its masculinist, heteronormative tropes."

Sounds of Dayton” 
Principal Investigator

Sonic Ecology Research Project, in collaboration with students enrolled in MUS 323 at the University of Dayton. Funded in part by two seed grants from the Dean’s Office of the College of Arts and Sciences. The study engages with populations in the city of Dayton who have been displaced by red-lining and gentrification to determine the effects sound has had on these populations historically. Specifically, the project utilizes sound recordings, soundwalks, anonymized collection and analysis of demographic data, and interlocutor interviews with Dayton residents (musicians and non-musicians) of various locations around the city, and will aggregate these findings into an interactive map.
