The Body in Sound, Music and Performance brings together
cutting-edge contributions from women working on and researching
contemporary sound practice. This highly interdisciplinary book
features a host of international contributors and places emphasis
on developments beyond the western world, including movements
growing across Latin America. Within the book, the body is situated
as both the site and centre for knowledge making and creative
production. Chapters explore how insightful theoretical analysis,
new methods, innovative practises, and sometimes within the
socio-cultural conditions of racism, sexism and classicism, the
body can rise above, reshape and deconstruct understood ideas about
performance practices, composition, and listening/sensing. This
book will be of interest to both practitioners and researchers in
the fields of sonic arts, sound design, music, acoustics and
performance.

An inspiring guide to creating stylish and livable outdoor spaces
An outdoor room is an extension of the home—a space that can used
for entertaining, relaxing, cooking, playing, swimming, and more.
In spaces large and small, outdoor rooms offer a retreat from daily
life and a connection to nature. In Inside Outside, Linda
O’Keeffe—former creative director of Metropolitan Home—will
inspire you to create an outdoor living space that offers an oasis
of comfort and style. O’Keeffe uses the language of interior
design to inform her approach to exterior design, focusing on
space, structure, movement, mood, and furniture.Inside Outside is
filled with private gardens from North America and Europe that are
inspiring and illustrative examples. From dramatic topiaries and
black tulips in Massachusetts to the living wall in the courtyard
of a Paris penthouse, fresh ideas permeate both the gardens found
within this book and the design thinking behind them.
