Location of Goldsmiths, University of London

This intersection has provided a rich seam of novel critical possibilities, the identification of new cultural objects and formations and margins of aural-visual interest. It has generated different types of artistic and other cultural practices too. As a result of this recent theoretical and practical work, the programme is also able to offer a set of new approaches to cinema, to the idea of voice and to whatever it is that constitutes a musical performance. The programme is also particularly interested in conjunctions of sound and architecture, the acoustic constellation of social space and the multitude of different daily exercised habits of listening.

Whilst grounded in the intellectual context of visual culture, the programme draws on recent work from anthropology, architecture, urban studies, film and film studies, cultural studies, music and elsewhere.

Requirements

The standard requirement is an upper second class honours or equivalent degree in history of art, architecture and design, fine art, film studies, cultural studies or a related humanities or arts subject. Students with degrees in music or music-related subjects are welcome, but a qualification in a musical discipline is not a requirement. A demonstrable interest in aural cultures of different kinds is needed: the necessary academic strength or intellectual curiosity will allow those with less than required grades in their degree results, or those with substantial work experience in a related field (in lieu of a degree qualification) to be considered. You may be advised to undertake a preparatory year of study on an appropriate programme such as the Postgraduate Diploma in Contemporary Art History.

If your first language is not English, you normally need a minimum score of 7.0 in IELTS or equivalent.
