[ecrea] Journal of Sonic Studies - New issue now available
Tue Dec 02 13:19:06 GMT 2014
We are delighted to announce the publication of the /Journal of Sonic
Studies/ special issue on Sounds of Space
(http://sonicstudies.org/current). Two years ago, to the day, scholars,
artists, and musicians convened at the Freie Universität Berlin to
participate in a two-day international workshop on /Sounds of Space/. In
many respects, the event constituted a venture into an under-researched
topic, which was curious given that sounds of space have been
documented, studied, and discussed since antiquity and experienced
across a diverse array of sonic and audiovisual media. Following the
success of the workshop, organizer William R. Macauley was invited to
edit a special issue of JSS comprised of articles based on a selection
of papers from the workshop. At long last, we cordially invite you to
visit the JSS website to read and hear the finely crafted collection
produced by leading scholars actively engaged in research on sonic
dimensions of space. As an added bonus we have included an interview
with historian and theorist of the media arts Douglas Kahn, and an
exclusive opportunity to experience Karl-Birger Blomdahl's remarkable
experimental film /Altisonans/. Hailing frequencies are open.
