Analysing the aural background of everyday spaces, this book
explores the role and processes of sound in daily life in a range
of contexts. Sounding Places questions how sound comes to be a
meaningful ingredient in the microgeographies of place-making, how
it contributes to shaping a variety of embodied and spatially
situated experiences, and how such aspects can be harnessed
methodologically. These topics contribute to broader debates on the
relations between representation and the non- or
more-than-representational that are taking place across the social
sciences and humanities in the wake of the cultural turn. Using
creative approaches, this multidisciplinary book brings together
the work of international scholars to enrich our understanding of
the more-than-representational registers of sound and sonic
experiences. Social science scholars focusing on human geography,
social psychology, music and cultural studies will find this to be
a beneficial read. It will also prove to be a useful tool for urban
planners and policy-makers interested in the use of sound and music
in public environments.
