Creative Research into Sound Arts Practice (CRiSAP) is a research centre of the University of the Arts London dedicated to the exploration of the rich complexities of sound as an artistic practice.
Our main aim is to extend the development of the emerging disciplinary field of sound arts and to encourage the broadening and deepening of the discursive context in which sound arts is practised.
Syma's PhD is titled 'Partition’s sonic condition: listening through the postcolonised archive'. Her practice-based research focuses on the discursive and temporal separations embedded in histories of the 1947 partition – the division of the British Raj into independent India and (east and west) Pakistan – through their sonic-archival forms.
