Educational Necropolitics A Sonic Ethnography of Everyday Racisms in U.S. Schools

Educational Necropolitics A Sonic Ethnography of Everyday Racisms in U.S. Schools

Scholars across fields of education have longstanding histories of critically considering the many ways that inequities in schooling are engendered and maintained and just as significantly how these forms of oppression might be resisted and refused. Drawing from these important dialogues Educational Necropolitics shares two years of stories sounds and powerful images collected through a sonic ethnographic study. What emerges from this work are the reverberations of how students in this context and more broadly how youth across the country often negotiate the intersections of race genders sexual orientations class and other parts of their complex identities in overwhelmingly white high school settings. This book examines what is produced in the wake of educational necropolitics—the capacity for schools to dictate to what degree minoritized students' ways of being can remain intact—and significantly it follows the daily lives of youth as they encounter forms of violence through what schools intend to teach what is left out what is learned through everyday interactions and what is valued through the broader emergent cultural contexts. This groundbreaking work includes interactive e-features that invite readers to travel and interact with participants of the study which utilizes deep listening in qualitative research and reflects the results of this sonic ethnography. A truly timely text for educators and administrators Educational Necropolitics provides an immersive experience in which leaders can address and correct systemic racist practices in the school setting by drawing directly from first-hand student experiences. | Educational Necropolitics A Sonic Ethnography of Everyday Racisms in U.

Sonic Politics Music and Social Movements in the Americas

Sonic Politics Music and Social Movements in the Americas

This volume analyses the narration of the social through music and the seismographic function of music to detect social problems and envision alternatives. Beyond state-driven attempts to link musical production to the official narrative of the nation mass musical movements emerged during the 20th century that provided countercultural and alternative narratives of the prevailing social context. The Americas contain numerous examples of the strong connection between music and politics; Woody Guthrie’s This Land is Your Land envisioned a socialist transformation of the U. S. the Chilean Nueva Canción created a narrative and affective frame for the recognition of popular culture as a central element of the cultural politics of the Chilean way to socialism and Reggae emerged as a response to British colonialism drawing inspiration and guidance from the pan-Africanist visions of Marcus Garvey. Providing a significant contribution to the study of music and politics/social movements from an inter-American perspective this book will appeal to students and scholars of U. S. and Latin American Cultural Studies Transnational Studies History and Political Studies Area Studies and Music Studies.

Shamanism in Siberia Sound and Turbulence in Cursing Practices in Tuva

Shamanism in Siberia Sound and Turbulence in Cursing Practices in Tuva

The focus of this book is on the phenomenon of cursing in shamanic practice and everyday life in Tuva a former Soviet republic in Siberia. Based on extensive anthropological fieldwork where the author interacted with a wide range of people involved in cursing practices the book examines Tuvans’ lived experience of cursing and shamanism thereby providing deep insights into Tuvans’ intimate and social worlds. It highlights especially the centrality of sound: how interactions between humans and non-humans are brought about through an array of sonic phenomena such as musical sounds sounds within words and non-linguistic vocalisations and how such sonic phenomena are a key part of dramatic cursing events and wider shamanic performance and ritual involving humans and spirits alike. Overall the book reveals a great deal about occult practices and about social change in post-Soviet Tuva.

Experiencing Organised Sounds The Listening Experience Across Diverse Sound-Based Works

Experiencing Organised Sounds The Listening Experience Across Diverse Sound-Based Works

Experiencing Organised Sounds investigates a wide horizon of sound-based works using a template consistently across its 16 studies. It has been written for both specialist and non-specialist readers aiming to address means of increasing appreciation and understanding related to the experience of sonic creativity (music involving any sounds not just musical notes) across this repertoire as well as to launch a discussion about how the reception of sonic creativity can be influenced by the circumstances of listening – in particular regarding the qualitative difference between the in-situ as opposed to mediated experience. Although listening is the volume’s focus complementary information from the musicians is offered to facilitate holistic work overviews. As the first composition presented was composed by a 15-year-old the intention is to demonstrate that what might be considered a niche area of the contemporary arts is one in which both increased appreciation and participation could and should easily be achieved. The book’s work discussions are divided over three central chapters focused on fixed-medium compositions performed and sound artworks. Experiencing Organised Sounds can be used as an undergraduate textbook by experienced readers or those new to the area. All works discussed and related materials are available to readers online. | Experiencing Organised Sounds The Listening Experience Across Diverse Sound-Based Works

Art of Sound Creativity in Film Sound and Electroacoustic Music

Art of Sound Creativity in Film Sound and Electroacoustic Music

Bringing together a diverse group of world leading professionals across Post-Production Film Sound and Electroacoustic Music Art of Sound explores the creative principles that underpin how sonic practitioners act to compose tell stories make us feel and communicate via sound. Revealing new understandings through analysis of interdisciplinary exchanges and interviews this book investigates questions of aesthetics perception and interpretation unveiling opportunities for a greater appreciation of the artistry in sound practice which underpins both experimental electronic music and the world’s leading film and television productions. It argues that we can better understand and appreciate the creative act if we regard it as a constantly unfolding process of inspiration material action and reflection. In contrast to traditional notions which imagine outputs as developed to reflect a preconceived creative vision our approach recognises that the output is always emerging as the practitioner flows with their materials in search of their solution constantly negotiating the rich networks of potential. This enables us to better celebrate the reality of the creative process de-centring technologies and universal rules and potentially opening up the ways in which we think about sonic practices to embrace more diverse ideas and approaches. Art of Sound provides insight into the latest developments and approaches to sound and image practice for composers filmmakers directors scholars producers sound designers sound editors sound mixers and students who are interested in understanding the creative potential of sound. | Art of Sound Creativity in Film Sound and Electroacoustic Music

Aural Architecture in Byzantium: Music Acoustics and Ritual

Aural Architecture in Byzantium: Music Acoustics and Ritual

Emerging from the challenge to reconstruct sonic and spatial experiences of the deep past this multidisciplinary collection of ten essays explores the intersection of liturgy acoustics and art in the churches of Constantinople Jerusalem Rome and Armenia and reflects on the role digital technology can play in re-creating aspects of the sensually rich performance of the divine word. Engaging the material fabric of the buildings in relationship to the liturgical ritual the book studies the structure of the rite revealing the important role chant plays in it and confronts both the acoustics of the physical spaces and the hermeneutic system of reception of the religious services. By then drawing on audio software modelling tools in order to reproduce some of the visual and aural aspects of these multi-sensory public rituals it inaugurates a synthetic approach to the study of the premodern sacred space which bridges humanities with exact sciences. The result is a rich contribution to the growing discipline of sound studies and an innovative convergence of the medieval and the digital. | Aural Architecture in Byzantium: Music Acoustics and Ritual

Popular Music in Evangelical Youth Culture

Popular Music in Evangelical Youth Culture

Christian churches and groups within Anglo-American contexts have increasingly used popular music as a way to connect with young people. This book investigates the relationships between evangelical Christianity and popular music focusing particularly on electronic dance music in the last twenty years. Author Stella Lau illustrates how electronic dance music is legitimized in evangelical activities by Christians’ discourses and how the discourses challenge the divide between the ‘secular’ and the ‘sacred’ in the Western culture. Unlike other existing books on the relationships between music cultures and religion which predominantly discuss the cultural implications of such phenomenon Popular Music in Evangelical Youth Culture examines the notion of ‘spirituality’ in contemporary popular electronic dance music. Lau’s emphasis on the sonic qualities of electronic dance music opens the door for future research about the relationships between aural properties of electronic dance music and religious discourses. With three case studies conducted in the cultural hubs of electronic dance music – Bristol Ibiza and New York – the monograph can also be used as a guidebook for ethnographic research in popular music.

Reconceiving Structure in Contemporary Music New Tools in Music Theory and Analysis

Reconceiving Structure in Contemporary Music New Tools in Music Theory and Analysis

This book studies recent music in the western classical tradition offering a critique of current analytical/theoretical approaches and proposing alternatives. The critique addresses the present fringe status of recent music sometimes described as crossover postmodern post-classical post-minimalist etc. and demonstrates that existing descriptive languages and analytical approaches do not provide adequate tools to address this music in positive and productive terms. Existing tools and concepts were developed primarily in the mid-20th century in tandem with the high modernist compositional aesthetic and they have changed little since then. The aesthetics of music composition on the other hand have been in constant transformation. Lochhead proposes new ways to conceive musical works their structurings of musical experience and time and the procedures and goals of analytic close reading. These tools define investigative procedures that engage the multiple perspectives of composers performers and listeners and that generate conceptual modes unique to each work. In action they rebuild a conceptual methodological and experiential place for recent music. These new approaches are demonstrated in analyses of four pieces: Kaija Saariaho’s Lonh (1996) Sofia Gubaidulina’s Second String Quartet (1987) Stacy Garrop’s String Quartet no. 2 Demons and Angels (2004-05) and Anna Clyne’s Choke (2004). This book defies the prediction of classical music’s death and will be of interest to scholars and musicians of classical music and those interested in music theory musicology and aural culture. | Reconceiving Structure in Contemporary Music New Tools in Music Theory and Analysis

The Quest for the Melodic Electric Bass From Jamerson to Spenner

The Quest for the Melodic Electric Bass From Jamerson to Spenner

The double bass - the preferred bass instrument in popular music during the 1960s - was challenged and subsequently superseded by the advent of a new electric bass instrument. From the mid-1960s and throughout the 1970s a melismatic and inconsistent approach towards the bass role ensued which contributed to a major change in how the electric bass was used in performance and perceived in the sonic landscape of mainstream popular music. Investigating the performance practice of the new melodic role of the electric bass as it appeared (and disappeared) in the 1960s and 1970s the book turns to the number one songs of the American Billboard Hot 100 charts between 1951 and 1982 as a prime source. Through interviews with players from this era numerous transcriptions - elaborations of twenty bass related features - are presented. These are juxtaposed with a critical study of four key players who provide the case-studies for examining the performance practice of the melodic electric bass. This highly original book will be of interest not only to bass players but also to popular musicologists looking for a way to instigate methodological and theoretical discussions on how to develop popular music analysis. | The Quest for the Melodic Electric Bass From Jamerson to Spenner

David Bowie and Transmedia Stardom

David Bowie and Transmedia Stardom

Addressing the interart intertextual and intermedial dimensions of David Bowie’s sonic and visual legacy this book considers more than five decades of a career invested with a star’s luminosity that shines well beyond the remit of pop music. The book approaches the idea of the star David Bowie as a medium in transit undergoing constant movement and change. Within the context of celebrity studies the concept of stardom provides an appropriate frame for an examination of Bowie’s transmedial activity especially given his ongoing iconic signification within the celestial realm. While Bowie has traversed many mediums he has also been described as a medium which is consistent with the way he has described himself. With contributions from a wide range of disciplinary areas and countries each chapter brings a fresh perspective on the concept of stardom and the conceptual significance of the terms ‘mediation’ and ‘navigation’ as they relate to Bowie and his career. Containing a multitude of different approaches to the stardom and mediation of David Bowie this book will be of interest to those studying celebrity audio and visual legacy and the relationships between different forms of media. It was originally published as a special issue of Celebrity Studies. | David Bowie and Transmedia Stardom
