Members of the SpokenWeb research partnership mourn the loss of our brilliant colleague, collaborator, and friend, Jonathan Sterne. Jonathan’s scholarship and leadership in the field of sound studies, his joyful energy as a collaborator with colleagues, students and practitioners across disciplines, and his tireless ability to observe, analyze, and find wonder in myriad phenomena have helped shape the directions and tone of our network’s endeavours for over a decade. His influence will continue even as his presence among us will be greatly missed.
SpokenWeb mourns the loss of our brilliant community partner and loving friend, Ian Ferrier. Poet, musician, community organizer and activist, most gentle, bold, and deeply caring human being, Ian’s contributions to spoken word and all forms of creative performance in literary communities in Montréal and across the world, have been formidable.
On Monday October 2nd (2023), from 7 to 8PM EST, we invite you to a virtual ZOOM salon where we will honor the poetry of Ian Ferrier and his contributions to literary communities in Canada.
