Résumé : |
The Acoustic City comprises five thematic sections:
- urban soundscapes with an emphasis on the distinctiveness of the urban acoustic realm; - acoustic flânerie and the recording of sonic environments; - sound cultures arising from specific associations between music, place, and sound; - acoustic ecologies including relationships between architecture, sound, and urban design; - and the politics of noise extending to different instances of anxiety or conflict over sound. Content : Rustications: animals in the urban mix - Steven Connor Soft coercion, the city, and the recorded female voice - Nina Power A beautiful noise emerging from the apparatus of an obstacle: trains and the sounds of the Japanese city - David Novak Strange accumulations: soundscapes of late modernity in J. G. Ballard’s “The Sound-Sweep" - Matthew Gandy Silent city: listening to birds in urban nature - Joeri Bruyninckx Sonic ecology: the undetectable sounds of the city - Kate E. Jones Recording the city: Berlin, London, Naples - BJ Nilsen Eavesdropping - Anders Albrechtslund Of longitude, latitude, and zenith: Los Angeles, Van Halen, and the aesthetics of “backyardism”-John Scanlan Helsinki seen through the lenses of the Kaurismäki brothers - Tony Mitchell "The echo of the wall fades”: reflections on the “Berlin school” in the early 1970s - Tim Caspar Boehme Margins music: lost futures in London’s edgelands - Andrew Harris The sound of Detroit: notes, tones, and rhythms from underground - Louis Moreno Dancing outside the city: factions of bodies in Goa - Arun Saldanha Encountering rokesheni masculinities: music and lyrics in informal urban public transport vehicles in Zimbabwe - Rekopantswe Mate Music as bricolage in post-socialist Dar es Salaam - Maria Suriano Singing the praises of power - Bob W. White Cinemas’ sonic residues - Stephen Barber Acoustic ecology: Hans Scharoun and modernist experimentation in West Berlin - Sandra Jasper Stereo city: mobile listening in the 1980s - Heike Weber Acoustic mapping: notes from the interface - Gascia Ouzounian The space between: a cartographic experiment - Merijn Royaards Machines over the garden: flight paths and the suburban pastoral - Michael Flitner Bad vibrations: infrasound, sonic hauntings, and imperceptible politics - Kelly Ladd Noise, language, and public protest: the cacerolazos in Buenos Aires - Leandro Minuchin Acoustic gentrification: the silence of warsaw’s sonic warfare - Joanna Kusiak I wail, therefore I am - Tripta Chandola |
Note de contenu / Note sur les enregistrements sonores : |
Financial support for the production of this book was provided by the Leverhulme Trust, the UCL Urban Laboratory, and the UCL Grand Challenges programme.
This essay collection and its accompanying CD have emerged from a sense that the field of sound, and our understanding of it, are undergoing a set of changes. The starting point for the idea arose from a Leverhulme Artist-in-Residence Fellowship held by BJ Nilsen in the UCL Urban Laboratory during 2012. Other points of connection include the regular Stadtklang events organized by the Urban Laboratory, and emerging intersections at UCL between architecture, acoustic ecology, and the study of urban soundscapes. Our critical engagement with sound has been facilitated through the development of interdisciplinary fields such as “acoustic ecology” and “sound studies,” yet the topic is nonetheless extremely difficult to accommodate within existing approaches to the organization of knowledge. The study of sound is marked by a series of intersecting domains derived from history, physics, law, musicology, and many other areas—each bringing its own set of intellectual concerns and institutional entanglements. |
