Symposium at the University of Hong Kong / TOWARDS A MANIFESTO: SOUNDING ARCHITECTURE

  • University of Hong Kong Rayson Huang Theatre Pokfulam Road Hong Kong (map)

Organized by Thomas Tsang, Associate Professor

This symposium brings together the HKU Faculty of Architecture (Department of Architecture) and the Faculty of Arts (Department of Music). The concept behind this project is collaboration and research. To develop a unique project dealing with sound and space, creating a dialogue between two distinct disciplines in architecture and music, which will advance international research into this field and have tangible benefits for non-specialists from the general community.

Sounding Architecture is funded by HKU Interdisciplinary Knowledge Exchange Project, support by HKU Department of Architecture and Department of Music, with KE partners, including the Hong Kong New Music Ensemble and Spring Workshop, to collaborate in a series of workshops and talks culminating in an installation, exhibition, and performance in 2017. This artistic and research collaboration will reach both established and new audiences for music and art in Hong Kong.
