[Cas-allemps] This Friday: CAS Interdisciplinary Research Talk, January 21

[CAS Dean]

Dear colleagues,



This is a reminder that our second presentation in the 2021-22 CAS Interdisciplinary Research Talk series will be given Friday. I encourage you to join us!


Much of our teaching and research in the liberal arts is multidisciplinary and collaborative. These talks are held to encourage conversation, interest, and understanding across divisional lines in the college. To further emphasize the interdisciplinary aspect of these talks, we are very excited to have collaborating presenters from different disciplines present this year’s series of talks.



The Volcano Listening Project

Leif Karlstrom, Associate Professor, Earth Sciences

Jeffrey Stolet, Professor, Music Technology



Friday, January 21, 3:30-5:00

Location: Zoom meeting<https://uoregon.zoom.us/j/98123273732>



The CAS IR Talk presentations are approximately 45 minutes followed by a question-and-answer session.



Leif Karlstrom is an Associate Professor in the Department of Earth Sciences. He studies fluid motions in and on volcanoes, landscape evolution, glaciology, and geodynamics. Leif also has an active professional music career as a classically trained violinist.

Jeffrey Stolet is a professor of music and a former Philip H. Knight professor at the School of Music and Dance. He performs his computer music compositions around the world and lectures about data-driven sonic outcomes.



Abstract: Volcano science is undergoing a data revolution facilitated by rapid technological development that is dramatically increasing the real-time detail of scientific observations. The Volcano Listening Project is an effort to study data by representing it through sound, recognizing that complex temporal signals seen at volcanoes can often be understood aurally. We are developing algorithms and approaches to combine data sonification and visualization that sit at the intersection data science, volcanology, and modern music. We will explore this intersection of art and science by discussing how data sonification can enable volcano science, and how volcanic data may inform human expression through music composition and performance.



This is sure to be an engrossing talk that promises lively discussion. I hope you can join us. Please see the list below for this year's planned talks and visit the new CAS Interdisciplinary Research Talks webpage<https://cas.uoregon.edu/cas-interdisciplinary-research-talks> for details as well as video recordings of previous talks.



Best regards,
