CRiSAP (Creative Research into Sound Arts Practice) are pleased to announce that the second Sound::Gender::Feminism::Activism (SGFA2014) research event will take place on the 16th and 17th of October, 2014.

Our invited keynotes are Tara Rodgers (USA) - author of Pink Noises - and Maggie Nicols (UK) musician, improviser, vocalist, activist.
This two-day event incorporates presentations, performances and screenings from academics, musicians, artists and performers selected through a peer-review process, each taking a different approach to the question:
What, in the historical present, might constitute an activist life in sound?
