The Laboratory of Narrative Research (LNR) is a teaching and research unit that is part of the School of English at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. It has been designed to bring together scholars and researchers from across the humanities, the social sciences and other scientific fields who have a special interest in the workings and the politics of narrative production.
Lab Director: Dr Effie Yiannopoulou
Can sound tell a story? We know that organized sound (i.e. music) can trigger emotion or establish a setting, but can we consider sound as a narrative creating device? How does sound relate to other narrative media?
This is a seminar on sound and stories unfolding in sound. We will hear sound stories and we’ll create our own sound narrative, thus exploring the limits and capacities of sound as a storytelling tool. No previous experience with sound work is required. Students are kindly asked to bring along: a scarf (or any long piece of fabric) and a small object with a distinct sound.
Where: at the department’s library (308)
When: Tuesday 6/3
What time: 17:30-19:30
As there is a limited number of participants, students interested in attending the workshop should contact Maria Ristani (mristani@enl.auth.gr) and reserve a place beforehand.
