SAMA (Sound Art & Sonic Arts)
Are you interested in studying sound art? SAMA (Sound Art & Sonic Arts) is Uniarts Helsinki’s joint study module, which explores sound as a versatile form of contemporary art. SAMA courses are aimed at master’s students, but they are also suitable for bachelor’s students and exchange students. You can complete individual courses of SAMA studies or the whole module. You can apply for the courses offered for the whole academic year 2024-2025 from April 4 2025 at 15:00 PM. Application ends one week before the start of the course. The courses in the module are taught in English.
As a highlight of our new course selection, we would like to mention two of our summer 2025 workshops. In the Approaches to Expanded Scoring (3 cr) course in June, you will have the opportunity to take a multidisciplinary approach to scoring. In addition, in August, you will have the opportunity to explore the intersection of ritual and sound through various theories of ritual and embodied sound practices in the Ritual and Sound (3 cr) workshop.
