Echo-locations: Toward a Sonic Aesthetics of Japanese Karaoke at Edinburgh University

We are proud to be partnering with The University of Edinburgh this year, for their 2024-25 Asian Studies Seminar Series!

The first talk in the series is by Dr Alexander Murphy, Assisant Professor in Language, Literature and Culture at Clark University. He will provide  fascinating insight into the use of echo and reverb in karaoke, and how this enables karaoke-goers to embody different identities.

This event is free to attend and registration is not essential. Just turn up!
