Between speech and song: multimedia presentations
The intention of this colloquium on Liminal utterances is to discuss "hands on", with as many audio and video examples as possible. The Multimedia Presentations are an experiment in that direction. Presenters were invited to combine audiovisual data and analysis in order to produce a (more-or-less) self-standing video file containing an argument or simply raising questions about the illustrated sound practices. These files are available below. They will also be played during the conference, where each of them will be followed by extensive discussion sessions with their authors.
