Sound art and sonic arts study module
Expand your understanding of sound as a form of contemporary art in our interdisciplinary Sound Art and Sonic Arts study module.
About the programme
Sound Art & Sonic Arts study module (SAMA) examines sound as a wide-ranging form of contemporary art. The artistic practices and contexts of sound art stem from the fields of music, sound design, visual arts and performing arts.

SAMA is coordinated by the Uniarts Helsinki Open Campus, and planned jointly by Time and Space Arts at the Academy of Fine Arts, the Master’s Degree Programme in Sound Design at the Theatre Academy and the Department of Music & Technology at the Sibelius Academy.
