Jack Reid, Graduate Student Talk, 2017

To expand on artist interests, MIT graduate students and postdocs are invited to share their field research in conjunction with work on view to provide audiences with a deeper understanding and prompts for thoughtful conversations.

This virtual talk will focus on the social life of hearing technologies in Amman, where Loh is currently carrying out dissertation fieldwork on assistive technologies for deaf Jordanians.
