In ‘In memoriam Stuart Marchall’ for clarinet and sine wave generator by Alvin Lucier he reminisces his former student and colleague. Marschall’s sound works investigated such phenomena as the threshold of hearing and the displacement of sound environments.

The ‘Jonge Academie’ during this symposium explores how researchers and artists cope with rapid technological and social developments without losing our focus on depth and reflection.
They explore this idea in panel discussions with experts from art, science and policy, who share their perspectives on the challenges and opportunities of both acceleration and deceleration. Artistic performances and a keynote on the future of acceleration add a deeper, artistic-philosophical perspective. The programme thus provides a space to reflect on how we can find balance between progress and rest in an ever-accelerating world.
