[Commlist] New issue of Journal of Sonic Studies published

Mon Jun 07 19:06:47 GMT 2021



*/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 <https://www.researchcatalogue.net/view/558606/558686>for the Table of  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.
