One hundred years after Luigi Russolos The Art of Noises, this book
exposes a cross-section of the current motivations, activities,
thoughts, and reflections of composers, performers, and artists who
work with noise in all of its many forms. The books focus is the
practice of noise and its relationship to music, and in particular
the role of noise as musical material -- as form, as sound, as
notation or interface, as a medium for listening, as provocation,
as data. Its contributors are first and foremost practitioners,
which inevitably turns attention toward how and why noise is made
and its potential role in listening and perceiving. Contributors
include Peter Ablinger, Sebastian Berweck, Aaron Cassidy, Marko
Ciciliani, Nick Collins, Aaron Einbond, Matthias Haenisch, Alec
Hall, Martin Iddon, Bryan Jacobs, Phil Julian, Michael Maierhof,
Joan Arnau Pamies, and James Whitehead (JLIAT). The book also
features a collection of short responses to a two-question
interview -- what is noise (music) to you? and why do you make it?
-- by some of the leading musicians working with noise today. Their
work spans a wide range of artistic practice, including
instrumental, vocal, and electronic music; improvisation; notated
composition; theater; sound installation; DIY; and software
development. Interview subjects include Eryck Abecassis, Franck
Bedrossian, Antoine Chessex, Ryan Jordan, Alice Kemp (Germseed),
George Lewis, Lasse Marhaug, Maja Solveig Kjelstrup Ratkje, Diemo
Schwarz, Ben Thigpen, Kasper Toeplitz, and Pierre Alexandre
Tremblay.
