[ecrea] Journal of Sonic Studies - New issue now available

We are proud to announce that the 13th issue of the /Journal of Sonic 
Studies/ <http://sonicstudies.org/jss13> (http://sonicstudies.org 
<http://sonicstudies.org/>) is online, entitled “Acoustic 
Ephemeralities.”  This issue was prepared by guest editors Monika 
Dommann, Boris Previšić, and Marianne Sommer, and discusses the 
specifically ephemeral qualities of the acoustic and the relationship 
between “micro- and macroephemeralities” in the modern age. Three focal 
points will be explicitly highlighted: the functions of media, music, 
and the sciences as generators of acoustic paradigms. In addition, this 
issue contains several musical commentaries, sonic interventions, and 
Sound-Essays, created by Michel Roth, Hannes Seidl, and Lucas Niggli.
