My teaching and research participates in the emerging field of literary sound studies, focusing on discourses of listening and acoustics in 20th and 21st-century literature, continental philosophy, media, and music.  I am interested in American and British modernism, the work of Faulkner and Conrad in particular, and what practices and philosophies of listening in the 20th century and beyond can tell us about the modernist novel as form.  I am also interested in the digital humanities as an emerging discipline, and how new media art practices can unlock the sounds and voices of modernism. I am a radio producer, practicing musician, and Associate Director of “Digital Yoknapatawpha,” an online mapping of the works of Faulkner.

Yeong Ran Kim' Image Yeong Ran Kim is a MA student in Media Studies at the New School. Pursuing her degree with a concentration in Sound Studies and Acoustic Environments, she delves into critical methodology intersected with experimental media practice. Her research interests center on the normalized violence under the neoliberal governance that affects the construction of the urban everyday life. Especially, she investigates acoustic forces and rhythmicity that constitute soundscapes of the urban spaces through an engagement with the sonic media in search of new aesthetic experiences and new ways of mobilizing communities. Most recent work of hers is a collaborative multimedia performance Ecstatic Corona, which is part of her multimodal thesis project Walking the Sonic: Acoustic Experience and Experiments in Corona.
