Presentation at the Toronto Film and Media Seminar, Jan 20th, 2023
I presented my paper “Teaching the Politics of Representation through Listening to Film Sound” on the Politics and Possibilities of Sound in Media panel at this year’s opening meeting of the TFMS. Thanks to organizers Katherine Spring and Taien Ng-Chan for the invitation.
About Me
I teach full time in the Humanities department at Champlain College in Montreal. My research, pedagogy, and creative practice reside at the intersections of soundscape research, media studies, and critical geography. I have previously taught in the cinema departments at Concordia University and Toronto Metropolitan University, and in the Humanities departments at Lasalle College and Dawson College. I have presented and published extensively on film sound, media geography, and acoustic ecology. My sound compositions, photographs and films have been exhibited internationally.
