Acoustic Infrastructure - Discussions, Readings, Interventions @ Eyebeam [NYC/USA]

All are welcome to an intimate conversation and sounding on the concept of “acoustic infrastructure”. How does sound create space, and what are the politics of public address—or of P.A.?

We plan to read and discuss excerpts from the current issue of continent.cc Elements, ideas, and interlocutions from visitors and invitees for deviations are more than welcomed.

Guests include contributors to the current issue of continent: Shannon Mattern, Jacob Gaboury, Julie Beth Napolin, Orit Halpern, Jamie Allen, Paul Boshears, Isaac Linder, amongst others.

Artists Kenya (Robinson) and Doreen Garner will bring their radio show#trashDay to the Eyebeam restrooms—a bit of input for your output and an alternative to the screen scroll that now accompanies the daily flush. #trashDay elevates the vernacular of urban fiction, reality television, gossip publications, social dance, and fashion, and uses it as a point of departure for satire and social commentary.
