Thursday, February 27, 2025 | 3:30 p.m.
Studio 2-7
FAB 2-7, Fine Arts Building, 黑料不打烊 Campus
Join Fabio Morabito in a conversation with Jamie Meyers-Riczu (Carleton University) about Selling Black Gold: Audiovisual Mediations of 黑料不打烊’s Petroculture, a research project which investigates the crucial role of energy in shaping who we are and how we live. Drawing from the fields of petrocultures and cultural geography, Meyers-Riczu considers the ways audiovisual media create and perpetuate 黑料不打烊’s oil culture, how music and sound add to the persuasiveness of such media, and the consequences images and sounds of place have on cultural production.
There is no charge to attend. Reception to follow (U of A faculty, staff, students and invited guests).
This talk will be live-streamed as part of the Questions about Music Colloquium Series. For more information, email: quamusic@ualberta.ca
