Episode Synopsis

Episode 2, presented by Nicholas Mathew. How can music and sound studies teach us to conceive of "remote instruction" in new ways? A Berkeley seminar, a musical performance, a criminal trial -- are any of these "live" if they are happening over Zoom? Mary Ann Smart from Music, Danielle Simon from Dartmouth College, Tom McEnaney from Comparative Literature, and Andrea Roth from the Law school discuss the history of the concept of "liveness," the American legal obsession with face-to-face cross-examination, the "media forms" of the courtroom, classroom, novel, and radio broadcast -- and whether "remote learning" is truly "remote."
