Sharon Stewart

Since graduating with a masters on the topic “Feminisms, Technology, Improvisation” in a music pedagogical practice from the Royal Conservatoire, Den Haag, Sharon Stewart has been involved in creating sonic works. A core teacher for the Center for Deep Listening® at RPI, writings include the article “Listening to Deep Listening” (2012, Journal of Sonic Studies) and “Inquiring into the Hack” (2020, The Bloomsbury Handbook of Sound Art), regarding new sonic and institutional practices.

She was on the editorial team of and contributed to the APRIA issue Time Matters (2021) and co-hosted one episode of the Sounding Places / Listening Places podcast series while creating the Deep Listening® podcast miniseries for ArtEZ Studium Generale.

These investigations into sound as a tool to radically reform institutions led her to her current topic – ethical practices within artistic research.
