Artist and electroacoustic composer Tarek Atoui considers the expansive potential of sound as an artistic material, exploring the potential of tactile, physical, gestural, and visual modes for its expression at art museums. Atoui will join Professor Elizabeth Margulis, director of Princeton University's Music Cognition Lab, for a discussion of sound as a medium for collaborative, socially focused artistic practice and the accessibility questions that arise when considering how to make sonic work available to diverse audiences. Moderated by Beth Gollnick, curatorial associate, photography and modern and contemporary art.
