The Faculty of AHSS, School of Education and School of Creative Arts invite you to a seminar by Professor Áine Mangaoang (University of Oslo) on Monday 17 February 2025 in the Neill Lecture Theatre, Trinity Long Room Hub.
This seminar explores the 'Prisons of Note' project, a groundbreaking investigation into the impact of music and sound in criminal justice systems. Focusing on research carried out in Irish prisons, Áine will delve into two particularly compelling case studies. First, an “inside-outside” choir that unites incarcerated men in Mountjoy Prison with women from a Dublin workplace choir, who have sung together as the InHouse Harmony choir for the past five years. Second, a collaborative soundscape project created by students and their teacher from Cork Prison, exhibited as a sound installation on the historic Spike Island in 2024.
This event is supported by the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences Visiting Professorships and Fellowships Benefaction Fund.
Further details are available on the Trinity Long Room Hub website.
