*/Journal of Sonic Studies /**21 - Sound at Home 1: Territory, 
Materiality and the Extension of Home*

The editorial team of /The Journal of Sonic Studies /(JSS) is happy and 
proud to announce that JSS21 is online now. Please click here

 Contents and the links to all articles. JSS21 is edited by Mette 
Simonsen Abildgaard, Marie Koldkjær Højlund and Sandra Lori Petersen, 
and the papers and exhibitions in this issue question whether the 
territory of the home is demarcated by its walls and floors or made up 
of zones of sounds that might be designed. They question what happens 
when the workplace is acoustically present in a kitchen as well as how 
intimacy is distributed throughout the home, for example when private 
conversations take place on a landline situated in the living room. As 
we learn from the papers published here, sonic territoriality of the 
home implies exploring and negotiating what makes up a home as well as 
the possibility of stretching and rearranging the established order of 
the home. When headphones are used to accompany the listener through the 
city, they might be considered a component of a sonic shield of 
familiarity, with COVID-19 making the notion of the home as a shield 
especially poignant. When sound becomes transportable through electronic 
devices, its materiality comes to the fore – the handheld device makes 
it (almost) tangible; when one’s work is building musical instruments, 
working from home implies impactful changes in the sounds at home. And 
when the online meeting platforms that COVID-19 has made us integrate 
into our working lives filter and configure sound in a certain way, 
sounds that we might not have noticed before suddenly become remarkable.
