About Sounding Out!
Sounding Out: A Sound Studies Blog provides an outlet for ruminations on the role of sound and listening in our contemporary culture, tackling questions like:
Did the invention of the iPod actually change the way we listen to music? Do we all listen in the same way?
Why does the crackle, pop, and hiss of old vinyl records comfort some and annoy others?
Does the sound of your voice impact your chances at employment and good housing?
Do supposedly neutral “noise ordinances” actually affect some people more than others?
Sounding Out provides you with the freshest insight and the latest commentary on the emerging field of sound studies and its many cultural manifestations. Every Monday, our dedicated cadre of writers will sound out the shifting territory of sound studies from different geographical, social, and intellectual vantage points. From the familiar strains of American pop culture to the more uncharted terrains of “noise music” shows, film editing rooms, and dusty analog technology, Sounding Out will amplify the many ways in which sound not only shapes your world, but makes it.
