This book examines the meanings, uses, and agency of voice, noise,
sound, and sound technologies across Asia. Including a series of
wide-ranging and interdisciplinary case studies, the book reveals
sound as central to the experience of modernity in Asia and as
essential to the understanding of the historical processes of
cultural, social, political, and economic transformation throughout
the long twentieth century. Presenting a broad range of topics -
from the changing sounds of the Kyoto kimono making industry to
radio in late colonial India - the book explores how the study of
Asian sound cultures offers greater insight into historical
accounts of local and global transformation. Challenging us to
rethink and reassemble important categories in sound studies, this
book will be a vital resource for students and scholars of sound
studies, Asian studies, history, postcolonial studies, and media
studies.
