Lunchtime Seminar ‘Sonic Archaeology’


Join participatory researchers Suzy O’Hara, Caroline Mitchell and sound artist Shelly Knotts and community co-investigators to learn more about the research-led, public engagement project entitled Whitburn Resonance and have a first look at the exciting Sound Dig website produced as part of the research. 

Whitburn Resonance is a community embedded “sonic archaeology” project that explores the acoustic landscape of the coastal village of Whitburn. The project brings together a participatory action research model entitled C-Map with sound, technology and archaeology expertise to enable local residents to hear through time and navigate their marine heritage and seascape through participatory co-research and acoustic mapping. 

There will be tea, coffee and light refreshments provided. We look forward to seeing you. 

Suzy, Caroline and Shelly.
