The Department of Music Studies of the University of Athens in collaboration with the Hellenic Society of Acoustic Ecology and the Municipality of Epidaurus organise the 7th Conference on Acoustic Ecology: Soundscapes, Biophony and Climate Crisis.
The conference will cover topics related to acoustic ecology, special emphasis will be given on biophony (sound signals of birds, insects and other living organisms) and geophony, and the effect of climate crisis on them. Similar emphasis will be given on subjects related to new technologies employed in acoustic ecology studies, such as new processes in recording, mapping, analysis and detection of natural sound as well as the use of recent developments in Artificial Inteligence and machine listing. The submission of proposals (installations, acoustic works, etc.) that highlight issues related to the climate crisis are strongly encouraged.
The three-day conference held in Athens will host both Greek and international researchers, artists and educators, members of the global acoustic ecology community.
