<span style="background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-size:initial;background-repeat:initial;background-origin:initial;background-clip:initial">Ultrasound tongue imaging has revolutionised
linguistic speech research as it has allowed us to image the movements of the
tongue using a low-cost and portable technique. This is likely to pave the way
for significant developments in language description, and has already enhanced
our understanding of speech dynamics, sound change and linguistic theory.
Current work is also beginning to explore applications of ultrasound tongue
imaging, particularly for second language learning and speech therapy. In this
session, we will discuss future directions for ultrasound research,
particularly in relation to L2 speech, bilingualism and migration. We will
address shortcomings of the approach and how it might be combined with other
modalities and methods in order to further enhance our understanding of the
dynamics of language.</span></span></p><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr"><div><font color="#000000" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.16px"><br></span></font><p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.9em;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12.16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><strong>Date</strong>:      Wednesday, 26 September, 2018</p><p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.9em;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12.16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><strong>Time</strong>:       6:00 - 8:00 pm</p><p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.9em;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12.16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><strong>Venue</strong>:     Sun Ra Room</p><p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.9em;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12.16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial">              <strong>Longplay Bar  NOTE NEW VENUE</strong></p><p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.9em;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12.16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><strong>Address: </strong>318 St Georges Road North Fitzroy 3068</p><p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.9em;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12.16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial">                <strong><a rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;color:rgb(51,102,153)" href="http://www.longplay.net.au/" class="m_-2165576643455992858ext" target="_blank">http://www.longplay.net.au/<span class="m_-2165576643455992858ext" style="background:url("") 2px 50% no-repeat;width:10px;height:10px;padding-right:12px;text-decoration:none"></span></a> </strong></p><p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.9em;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12.16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"> </p><p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.9em;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12.16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial">LIP is an occasional gathering of language activists and linguists in Melbourne and is coordinated by the MLIP committee: Ruth Singer, Rosey Billington, Jill Vaughan (Melbourne Uni), Lauren Gawne, Mijke Mulder (LaTrobe Uni), Jonathan Schlossberg (Monash Uni) and Andrew Tanner (RNLD).</p></div></div></div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">-------</font></div><div dir="ltr"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">Dr Ruth Singer</font></div><div dir="ltr"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">Research Fellow, </font><span style="font-size:x-small;font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(0,0,0)">Wellsprings of Linguistic Diversity Project</span></div><div><p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">College of Asia and the Pacific</font></p><p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">The Australian National University</font></p><p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><br></font></p><p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1">Honorary Fellow, School of Languages and Linguistics, University of Melbourne</font></p><p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt"><br></p></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><a href="http://chl.anu.edu.au/our-people/details/ruth-singer" target="_blank">http://chl.anu.edu.au/our-people/details/ruth-singer</a> </font></div><div dir="ltr"><font face="verdana, sans-serif" size="1"><a href="http://www.findanexpert.unimelb.edu.au/display/person2621" target="_blank">http://www.findanexpert.unimelb.edu.au/display/person2621</a></font></div><div dir="ltr"><span style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:x-small"><a href="https://anu-au.academia.edu/RuthSinger" target="_blank">https://anu-au.academia.edu/RuthSinger</a></span><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr
