Sound and Vision - The Music Video Reader (Paperback, New)

Addressing one of the most controversial forms of popular culture in the contemporary world, Sound and Vision confronts easy interpretations of music video - as promotional vehicles, filmic images, postmodern culture - to offer a new and bold understanding of its place in pop music, television and the media industries. _ Sound and Vision is the first significant collection of new and classic texts on video and brings together some of the leading international cultural and music critics writing today. The book acknowledges the history of the commercial status of pop music as a whole, as well as its complex relations with other media, to offer a new and refreshing interpretation which takes both terms - music and video - seriously. Sound and Vision will be an essential text for students of popular music and popular culture. _ The editors: Lawrence Grossberg is a Professor of Speech Communications and Criticism and Interpretive Theory at the University of Illinois. Simon Frith is a Professor of English at Strathclyde University and co-director of the John Logie Baird centre. Andrew Goodwin is a lecturer in the Department of Broadcast Communication Arts at San Francisco State University. _ The contributors: Jody Berland, Mark Fenster, Simon Firth, Andrew Goodwin, Lawrence Grossberg, Lisa Lewis, Kobena Mercer, Leslie Savan, Will Straw, Robert Walser e Savan, Will Straw, Robert Walser _ Readership: Communication, media and cultural studies
