Dear all, 

The Department of Music at the University of Aberdeen is pleased to announce a PhD fee-waiver scholarship open to home, EU and overseas students who intend to start in October 2014. We are particularly interested in accepting applications from those who show potential in conducting practice-based research through composition, sound installation, and/or creative coding. 

The proposed research should be in line with the research theme outlined below:
Place in Sound, Sound in Place: Technologically Mediated, Negotiated, Challenged or Resituated Sense of Place in Sonic Arts Practice

This research aims to investigate Sonic Arts practice through the lens of artists’ engagement with place through technological media. Its methodology is both theoretical and practical in that the PhD student will not only examine the Sonic Arts practice of the past and present through literature review and analysis of selected work, he or she will also create original Sonic Arts work in the form of electroacoustic compositions, interactive or immersive sound installations and live electronic performance through which new approaches to sound-place constructs are proposed and put to test.

The above research theme is interdisciplinary in nature, and therefore, we are very much interested in accepting applications whose research background and interest is diverse, such as: electroacoustic composition, interactive or immersive sound installation, digital audio production, creative coding, sound synthesis and DSP, interactive programming and experimental music, live electronic performance, sound studies (cultural, historical and technical aspects), radiophonic composition, or audio-visual work.

Attached is a document detailing the scholarship and application process. But below are some key aspects of the scholarship:

- A full-fee-waiver scholarship for three years for UK, EU or Overseas students;
- Application requirements: 
1. Formal online application through the university
2. Email to the Graduate School of Administrator
3. Research proposal and a portfolio of previous work to Lead Supervisor (Dr Suk-Jun Kim)
- Deadline of applications: Friday 6 June 2014

Candidates are welcome to contact me to discuss their ideas or submit a preliminary draft proposal. 

Best regards,
Jun
