Our #justnoisepod team traveled to #Cambridge to interview Dr Fiona Smyth @Spectres_Camo about #silence, room acoustics... and the "gravitas of seaweed" 😉 - stay tuned for an upcoming episode, and get her book while you can! #PistolsInStPauls @ManchesterUP
Stay tuned for an episode soon! ;)

This was great fun to review - I’d very much recommend Fiona Smyth’s latest work, “Pistols in St Paul's: Science, Music, and Architecture in the Twentieth Century”! #sound #acoustics #architecture #building #stpauls @StPaulsLondon #cathedral #music #science #london #history
'Pistols in St Paul's' unearths the story of a group of scientists, architects and musicians, who set out to address a surprising and ground-breaking question: could a building be a musical instrument? Publishing in September. @edward_gillin #architecture #acoustics #science

Publishing in September, this is a ground-breaking account of the British scientists and architects who pioneered acoustics in the 20th century. Perfect for fans of @juderogers, @KateMolleson, @alexrossmusic & @LeahBroad. 'Pistols in St Paul's' is available to pre-order now.

We loved spending time with friends of the #SpectresAndCamo project during our panel at #EASST4S2024. @ERC_Research Brilliant discussions around the evolution of silencing and camouflaging, from the social to the technological. @STSeasst

Coming back from presenting on the theme of #silence and marginalisation in Ireland, in #EASST4S2024 yesterday. A truly inspiring panel with @ameliamcconv @AmyFahy and Sadhbh Crean, organised by @FairyTaleSci @Spectres_Camo @ucddublin

It's been a great start to the @PossibilitySN Conference at @Cambridge_Uni. We shared new work on possibilities created by acoustic measurement and control, from spectres of war to revolutions on the dance floor. Tomorrow we visit the @ChuArchives. Stay tuned 👀

Can't wait for @PossibilitySN Conference next week at @Cambridge_Uni. I'll be sharing brand new research on silencing technologies, bone records, hidden clubs, and the infamous sound system wars. #ScienceHistory #ColdWar #PossibilityStudies See y'all soon. 💀 @Spectres_Camo

More brilliance from @archsci10. Check out her chapter "Mysterious Changes in Molecular Structure: Pragmatics, Poetics and Designing for Musical Tone" So cool. ✨
Book chapter now out in the world - and in very illustrious company... luigiboccherini.org/2024/06/…

We cannot wait to discuss the exchange and transformation of ideas across disciplines at #Ecsite2024 What does an "unworldly laboratory" have to do with the ecological design movement? Sound as art, science, and cultural revolution are all up for discussion this Thursday!

A small device senses sounds using a spiderweb-like design—a strategy that could lead to chip-size microphones that are less affected by thermal noise. Read more about this research presented at #ASA186 in Physics Magazine: physics.aps.org/articles/v17…

Our research assistant Paula Arning had a brilliant time visiting the @BASF archive. Thank you to their team for their invaluable support in accessing documents from the 1930s. Your help was critical in continuing to uncover the history and evolution of #AnechoicTechnology.
