Articulatory control and the nature of phonological organization

Sam Kirkham (Lancaster U.)
Pat Strycharczuk (U. of Manchester)

Description: Since its inception, understanding the nature of phonological organization has been a core goal of Laboratory Phonology. Theories and models of articulatory control remain central to this endeavour, because they open a window into the planning and control of speech that fundamentally supports the realization of phonological structure. This satellite workshop looks back to longstanding debates on phonological organization, while looking forward to the advances that will drive progress on the nature of articulatory control, the role of symbolic representations, and the embodiment of phonology.
