TV Aesthetics<br />
Dr Karen Lury, <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> Glasgow, will<br />
demonstrate how the formal analysis <strong>of</strong><br />
television may work to ‘open up’ the texts <strong>of</strong><br />
television in interesting ways. Focusing on the<br />
formal organisation <strong>of</strong> sound in the American<br />
crime drama, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,<br />
the presentation will address the various<br />
aspects <strong>of</strong> ‘sound’ – voice, sound effects,<br />
ambient sound and music – orchestrated<br />
within the programme. This formal analysis<br />
will then be linked to the spiritual or religious<br />
associations <strong>of</strong> ‘sound’ and hearing, which<br />
could suggest that the lead investigator's<br />
increasing deafness over seasons one to<br />
three <strong>of</strong> the programme acts not only as a<br />
mechanical problem in relation to solving<br />
crime but as a spiritual or religious crisis for<br />
the character and for the series itself.<br />
