Sound City Talk is part of a series of talks looking at how to become a smart citizen in a smart city. Speakers for this talk include Dr John Levack Drever (sound artist and academic), Peter Cusack (sound artist) and Francesca Panetta (audio producer and sound artist).This talk looks at the locative and cognitive potential of sound and how sound shapes our experience of the environment. Will smart technologies silence the city as they take over from ‘analogue’ machinery? Are we avoiding our environment by plugging into our ipods or are we creating our own soundscape to navigate by? What are the politics of noise?This talk is free, but tickets are limited. Please book your ticket by going to http://soundcitytalk.eventbrite.co.uk
