“Noise is a model of cultural historiography. . . . In its
general theoretical argument on the relations of culture to
economy, but also in its specialized concentration, Noise has much
that is of importance to critical theory today.” SubStance“For
Attali, music is not simply a reflection of culture, but a
harbinger of change, an anticipatory abstraction of the shape of
things to come. The book’s title refers specifically to the
reception of musics that sonically rival normative social orders.
Noise is Attali’s metaphor for a broad, historical vanguardism,
for the radical soundscapes of the western continuum that express
structurally the course of social development.”
EthnomusicologyJacques Attali is the author of numerous books,
including Millennium: Winners and Losers in the Coming World Order
and Labyrinth in Culture and Society.
