This past spring semester, 23 Furman students contributed to a digital dictionary that you can hear online. The Furman exhibit, “Humans vs. Nature? Breaking the Dichotomy,” was created as a project for the English course, Literature and the Environment. It’s featured on The Sonic Dictionary, a growing collection of more than 800 sound recordings created by university students.
Michele Speitz, professor of English literature, asked her students to research the sounds they collected, providing written narratives that would ground the recordings in philosophical or scientific theory.
