Sound art has long been resistant to its own definition. Emerging
from a liminal space between movements of thought and practice in
the twentieth century, sound art has often been described in terms
of the things that it is understood to have left behind: a space
between music, fine art, and performance. The Oxford Handbook of
Sound Art surveys the practices, politics, and emerging frameworks
of thought that now define this previously amorphous area of study.
Throughout the Handbook, artists and thinkers explore the uses of
sound in contemporary arts practice. Imbued with global
perspectives, chapters are organized in six overarching themes of
Space, Time, Things, Fabric, Senses and Relationality. Each theme
represents a key area of development in the visual arts and music
during the second half of the twentieth century from which sound
art emerged. By offering a set of thematic frameworks through which
to understand these themes, this Handbook situates constellations
of disparate thought and practice into recognized centers of
activity.
