About the SOUND/IMAGE Research Centre
The SOUND/IMAGE Research Centre is an internationally recognised hub using practice as a tool of critical enquiry, our shared goal is to question the relationships between sound and the visual, as well as the images which sound alone conjures the mind. The centre brings together musicians and sound designers, film makers, scientists, architects, artists and philosophers to undertake leading research and deliver research informed teaching to our BA, MA and PhD cohorts.
We aim to:
- Develop new, inclusive experiences and forms of expression, bringing people together with new technologies to better understand and connect with one another and the environment.
- Provide innovative training and evidence-based guidance in new and emerging areas of music, immersive media, and digital heritage.
- Reflect upon, and explore the potential of, new immersive and virtual technologies using an arts and humanities frame, generating world-leading insights and reducing barriers for access.
- Demonstrate the significance of the creative arts, culture and social sciences in understanding the complexity of the human condition as it relates to wellbeing, social justice, environment, sustainability and place-making.
