The Sounds of Silence

Is silence merely an absence of sound, or is there something more weighty taking place? This podcast, hosted by Jesse Locker and featuring Jon L. Pitt, Alison Carter, and Cori Knight, discusses the ways in which the interplay of silence and sound surface in various fields. From the secret utterances of plants, to questioning who gets to speak for the dead in archaeology, to upending the silences enforced by consensus memory, this podcast will take the listener on a tour of the ways in which silence is anything but.
