This book, which originally appeared as a special issue of TDR/The
Drama Review, explores the myriad aesthetic, cultural, and
experimental possibilities of radiophony and sound art. Art making
and criticism have focused mainly on the visual media. This book,
which originally appeared as a special issue of TDR/The Drama
Review, explores the myriad aesthetic, cultural, and experimental
possibilities of radiophony and sound art. Taking the approach that
there is no single entity that constitutes "radio," but rather a
multitude of radios, the essays explore various aspects of its
apparatus, practice, forms, and utopias. The approaches include
historical, political, popular cultural, archeological, semiotic,
and feminist. Topics include the formal properties of radiophony,
the disembodiment of the radiophonic voice, aesthetic implications
of psychopathology, gender differences in broadcast musical voices
and in narrative radio, erotic fantasy, and radio as an electronic
memento mori. The book includes a new piece by Allen Weiss on the
origins of sound recording. Contributors John Corbett, Tony Dove,
