The ÆSR Lab (Applied/Experimental Sound Research Laboratory) is a sound research laboratory at the interface of art and science, which as an infrastructure - with precise instruments and state-of-the-art technology - promotes interdisciplinary research and artistic creation and supports the development and experimentation with new technologies.

The ÆSR Lab focuses on the areas of experimental sound research, including machine learning, field recording methods, architectural sound design (spatialisation) and reference to the physical world by means of sensors and actuators (physical computing). At the same time, the interface from analogue to digital is explored via the conservation, restoration and digitisation of sound carriers.
