The Sonic Arts Research Centre (SARC) called for applications from doctoral students (at any stage of their research) with a music/sonic arts/performance background, in particular from those researchers with an interest in new technologies.
The course ‘BIG EARS sonic art for public ears’ ran from 8 - 11 March 2012 and delivered training in communication skills, public engagement and offered hands-on experience for researchers in linking with an audience facilitated by Northern Ireland's leading children's arts organisation, Young at Art.
On the final days (10/11 March 2012) PhD researchers worked closely with 22 local children and showcased the outcomes, designed during the course. The final public event was staged at SARC, a cutting-edge space, geared towards new technological developments.
