Granular examination of Ex-communication

As a musician and sound artist my focus in language is not only the meaning of a word, but the sound of a word. In this talk I want to examine the meaning, sound and emotional evocation of Ex-communication. What does this word look like at a granular level? What does the meaning of this word change when we zoom into it? Can we feel differently about excommunication if we hear the sound of this word in different contexts? In this talk we will explore these topics together.
