We cannot simply listen to our urban past. Yet we encounter a rich
cultural heritage of city sounds presented in text, radio and film.
How can such "staged sounds" express the changing identities of
cities? This volume presents a collection of studies on the staging
of Amsterdam, Berlin and London soundscapes in historical
documents, radio plays and films, and offers insights into themes
such as film sound theory and museum audio guides. In doing so,
this book puts contemporary controversies on urban sound in
historical perspective, and contextualises iconic presentations of
cities. It addresses academics, students, and museum workers alike.
With contributions by Jasper Aalbers, Karin Bijsterveld, Carolyn
Birdsall, Ross Brown, Andrew Crisell, Andreas Fickers, Annelies
Jacobs, Evi Karathanasopoulou, Patricia Pisters, Holger Schulze,
Mark M. Smith and Jonathan Sterne.
