PechaKucha: On Noise

Sound is a force we rarely notice, yet it shapes our spatial, emotional, and cultural experiences in profound ways. This PechaKucha explores the unseen aspects of sound, spanning audiology, vinyl technology, architectural acoustics, voice as branding, and early childhood communication through sign language.

Five speakers from across disciplines will reposition sound as a vital force that influences perception and experience.
