Noise permeates our highly mediated and globalised cultures. Noise
as art, music, cultural or digital practice is a way of intervening
so that it can be harnessed for an aesthetic expression not caught
within mainstream styles or distribution. This wide-ranging book
examines the concept and practices of noise, treating noise not
merely as a sonic phenomenon but as an essential component of all
communication and information systems. The book opens with ideas of
what noise is, and then works through ideas of how noise works in
contemporary media, to conclude by showing potentials within noise
for a continuing cultural renovation through experimentation.
Considered in this way, noise is seen as an essential yet excluded
element of contemporary culture that demands a rigorous engagement.
Reverberations brings together a range of perspectives, case
studies, critiques and suggestions as to how noise can mobilize
thought and cultural activity through a heightening of critical
creativity. Written by a strong, international line-up of scholars
and artists, Reverberations looks to energize this field of study
and initiate debates for years to come.
