Hello,

I'm moderating this panel at Hunter. Looks like we have a fantastic
group; anyone interested in the cultural history of noise and sound,
sound's policy and ecology implications, and sound art or
noise-influenced music will definitely want to attend! We also welcome
faculty and students to participate in the acoustic ecology group now
meeting monthly at Hunter to examine these issues.

Best,

Peter Kirn
