    UiO research center RITMO's postdoctoral fellow Dr. Remy Martin and doctoral fellow Martin Pleiß took this episode as an opportunity to stroll through one of Oslo’s most prominent places for experiencing art - the national museum of Norway. They do not simply look around, but pay attention to how we use sounds to make sense of what we experience.

  • The Music Talkshow: introduction

    “The Music Talkshow” is a musicology dissemination show by our local University of Oslo early career music and sound researchers – PhD’s and postdocs.

About The Music Talkshow

From the publisher's feed

“Music Talkshow” is a musicology dissemination show by our local University of Oslo early career music and sound researchers – PhD’s and postdocs. How do we communicate our research to the “outside” world? How do we maintain our relevance to society as academics? People who write about music, but not the music itself? In other words, how does our work relate to the real world, and how does the real-world manifests in our work?
