5th LiZZ-Gespräch: Multimodality

Thursday, October 24, 2024
16:15 - 18:00 with apéro
KOL-E-13 (Rämistrasse 71, 8006 Zurich)

Consideration of language as a multimodal phenomenon has gained traction in recent years. Textual, auditory, and visual cues are considered and sometimes combined with additional signals such as those of neuroscience. The aim of this panel discussion is to investigate the benefits of looking at multiple modalities in language-related research, to obtain insights into ongoing multimodality research in the context of the Zurich Center for Linguistics (LiZZ), and to assess technical, legal, and ethical challenges arising from dealing with different modalities. We are looking forward to our panelists:

  • Prof. Dr. Nathalie Giroud (Computational Neuroscience of Speech & Hearing UZH)
  • Amit Moryossef (Language, Technology and Accessibility UZH)
  • Dr. Farhad Nooralahzadeh (UZH Krauthammer Lab, ZHAW School of Engineering)
  • Dr. Teodora Vuković (DSI and LiRI UZH)
  • Moderation: Prof. Dr. Sarah Ebling (Language, Technology and Accessibility UZH)

The LiZZ-Gespräche are a public event series with the aim of promoting direct and personal dialogue among LiZZ members and everybody else interested in linguistics. Everybody sharing an interest in linguistics is welcome to join!

The 5th LiZZ-Gespräch takes place on October 24, 2024 at the UZH City Campus, room KOL-E-13 (Rämistrasse 71, 8006 Zurich). The event will be conducted in English.
