conference, soon to be held at the University of Huddersfield on 4-5 
June 2026:

https://amplification.eventbrite.co.uk/


You can get tickets for individual days or if you would like to attend 
the whole conference, please add tickets for both days to your cart.

Hosted by the Amplification Project, this conference explores key issues 
and debates around amplification.

The Amplification Project is a £5 million Leverhulme Trust-funded 
research project at the University of Huddersfield and is the first 
large-scale research project dedicated to the study of amplification. 
More than a way to make things louder, amplification has contributed to 
the increased ubiquity of recorded sound in everyday life and has 
afforded new mechanisms for controlling sound or using sound as a medium 
for social control. This two-day conference will help to identify and 
define key issues and debates that are of core importance to the topic 
and will advance our mission to make amplification into a key subject in 
the cultural study of music and sound.

The conference will take place in Bronte Lecture Theatres, Lecture 
Theatre 1 (BLG/05), Ground Floor.

Unearthed
--------------------

On the evening of Thursday 4th June, we are hosting an exciting series 
of performances and installations presented by Yorkshire Sound Women 
Network. Unearthed features Yorkshire-based artists who were selected 
through an open callout by Yorkshire Sound Women Network (YSWN) to 
create new electronic work for performance or installation. From the 
intimate to the expansive, each piece here invites us to perceive and 
reflect upon our world at a heightened level.

Unearthed will take place in the Richard Steinitz Building.

Tickets for 'Unearthed' must be acquired separately. Please visit:
