Dive into the rich history and dynamic power of radio and sound as cultural, political, and artistic forces in this hands-on, interdisciplinary course. You’ll explore everything from state propaganda to underground movements through critical theory, historical case studies, and creative projects—including building your own radio. Each session blends listening, reading, and making. By the end, you’ll not only understand sound as a medium of memory and resistance—you’ll know how to produce it yourself.
