It's not a book about music per se, but it's hard to imagine a reading of it not interacting creatively with anyone's thinking on musical practice and meaning. LaBelle has a kind of accepting overview that I can't help admiring. It's too easy to simply decry noise pollution or the behavioural engineering of public space without actually exploring what a specific event might mean (e.g., how sound is wrapped up in identity and issues of private and public space), but LaBelle has the ability to keep thinking where many others would just react. It's an ability that makes this one of the more stimulating reads of the year. * Point of Departure *\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAcoustic Territories\u003c\/i\u003e takes account of contemporary urban space by listening to it ...

Modern audio forensic analysis combines skills in digital signal processing, the physics of sound propagation, acoustical phonetics, audio engineering, and many other fields. Scientists and engineers who work in the field of audio forensics are called upon to address issues of authenticity, quality enhancement, and signal interpretation for audio evidence that is important to a criminal law enforcement investigation, an accident investigation board, or an official civil inquiry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpertise in audio forensics has never been more important.

From the vibrational intensities of common life to the rhythm of bodies in movement, and drawing from his ongoing work on sound and agency, Brandon LaBelle positions acoustics, and the broader experience of listening, as a dynamic means for fostering responsiveness, understanding, dispute, and the work of reorientation. As such, acoustic justice emerges as a compelling platform for engaging struggles over the right to speak and to be heard that extends toward a broader materialist and planetary view. This entails critically addressing questions of space, borders, community, and the acoustic norms defining capacities of listening, leading to what LaBelle terms poetic ecologies of resonance. \u003ci\u003eAcoustic Justice\u003c\/i\u003e works at issues of recognition and resistance, place and displacement, by moving across a range of pertinent references and topics, from social practices and sound art\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/h2\u003eThis is yet another delightful read on sonic agency by Brandon LaBelle, highlighting this time what is at stake when we think of social and political transformation as an acoustic question. In \u003ci\u003eAcoustic Justice\u003c\/i\u003e, LaBelle takes the readers through thrilling discussions on ‘hearing differently,’ on ‘generous infrastructure’ and ‘relating otherwise’ – all of them involved in reconfiguring our capacity to act politically. LaBelle's unique approach offers insight into the temporal and situational realms of sound and listening that are fleeting yet necessary for any process of reimagining political possibilities. In the world today, marked by intense structural feelings of uncertainty and fragility, his theorizing of an impersonal, distributed, and collaborative political agency is not just refreshing but indeed very much needed. This book resonates across various fields of social sciences and humanities and is an essential reading for those interested in political theory, sound studies, resistance, and affect theory. * Ana Hofman, Senior Research Fellow, Research Centre of Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Slovenia *\u003cbr\u003eBrandon LaBelle’s \u003ci\u003eAcoustic Justice \u003c\/i\u003emakes important contributions to the scholarship on sound, politics and the public sphere. Exploring how listening as a form of attentiveness functions in an arena of sonic agency, LaBelle deftly illustrates how an acoustic justice exercises a democratic collective action. This is a non-state form of democracy with the capacity to bring into being an extrajudicial civic body, one with greater capacity for what he calls ‘hearing differently.’ Hearing differently accounts for differences in what is or can be heard as a result of silences, gaps, deafnesses, or absences. Offering up acoustics as a metric for both material and social relations, LaBelle dynamically reads the encounter between the organic and built environments as a ‘distribution of the heard’ invigorating our understanding of the \u003ci\u003epolis\u003c\/i\u003e as a social acoustic phenomenon. * Roshanak Kheshti, Associate Professor of Ethnic Studies, University of California, San Diego, USA *\u003cbr\u003eLabelle is such a playful and expansive thinker\u003ci\u003e. Acoustic Justice\u003c\/i\u003e draws so much together across art, philosophy, activism, and beyond to sound an urgent intervention in the politics of attention: a commitment both to hearing differently and to hearing difference. This is an account of acoustics unbound from the audible and an account of justice just 'to the side of law,' that migrates in and out of the legal system and insists on the need for a fair hearing 'in the space of the ordinary.' * James E K Parker, author of Acoustic Jurisprudence: Listening to the Trial of Simon Bikindi (2015) *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e1.

Viewed through a lens of music and art histories rather than philosophical theory, it covers dozens of artists and works not found in any other book on the subject.  Locating sound art''s roots across the centuries from spatialized church music to the technological developments of radio, sound recording, and the telephone, the book traces the evolution of sound installations and sound sculpture, the rise of sound art exhibitions and galleries, and finally looks at the critical cross-pollination that marks some of the most important and challenging art with and about sound being produced today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/h2\u003e[An] important text for anyone involved in any form of sound studies. * The Wire (joint-reviewed with Acoustic Territories) *\u003cbr\u003eAlan Licht’s historical approach successfully unpacks the development of sound art and explains its development through a multitude of examples.

Dolby. Making Stereo Fit reveals that, in fact, filmmakers have been creating stereo and surround-sound effects for nearly a century, since the advent of talking pictures, and argues that their endurance owes primarily to the longstanding battles between stereo and mono technologies. Throughout the book, Eric Dienstfrey analyzes newly discovered archival materials and myriad stereo releases, from Hell's Angels (1930) to Get Out (2017), to show how Hollywood's financial dependence on mono prevented filmmakers from seeing surround sound's full aesthetic potential. Though studios initially explored stereo's unique capabilities, Dienstfrey details how filmmakers eventually codified a conservative set of surround-sound techniques that prevail today, despite the arrival of more immersiveformats.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h2\u003eContents\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e List of Illustrations \u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Introduction: Stereo Front and Center \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.
