The Soundscapes of Our Elsewheres

Abstract

In this article, ethnomusicologist Sylvia Angelique Alajaji interviews electronic music composer, filmmaker, sound artist, and producer Lara Sarkissian on her career, artistic process, making music as an Armenian in diaspora, and the ways she uses music to bring into conversation the various (often quieted) presents of the diaspora with its many (often quieted) pasts, thus creating soundscapes of future possibility.
