[Commlist] CFP - The Sonic Image - MLA 2021

Wed Feb 19 12:00:49 GMT 2020





The MLA Visual Culture forum is pleased to organize a special session on:


*The Sonic Image*


Visual and Sound Studies have evolved on separate paths in recent years, with sound emerging as a “course correction” for the dominance of the visual.What do these two emergent fields have to say to each other today?Is it time to go beyond what Don Ihde called “the audio-visual litany” to a more nuanced account of the relations of seeing and hearing, watching and listening?Could the concept of the “sonic image” provide a bridge between the scopic and vocative drives, the pictorial and the phono-graphic? We are seeking papers that address suchtopics as:Disability studies and the relations of Blindness and Deafness;Ekphrasis and translations between sound and sight, speech and vision; audio-visual technologies; resonance and representation; music and the visual arts.


Deadline:

Please submit a 200-word abstract and a brief biography to Thy Phu at (tphu /at/ uwo.ca) by March 31, 2020.

The committee will notify applicants of its decision by April 15, 2020
