Description
The field of Sound Studies has changed and developed dramatically over the last two decades, involving a vast and dizzying array of work produced by those working in the arts, social sciences, and sciences. The study of sound is inherently interdisciplinary and is undertaken both by those who specialise in sound and by others who wish to include sound as an intrinsic and indispensable element in their research.
The Bloomsbury Handbook of Sonic Methodologies is the first resource to provide a wide-ranging, cross-cultural, and interdisciplinary investigation and analysis of the ways in which researchers use a broad range of methodologies to pursue their sonic investigations. It brings together 49 specially commissioned chapters that ask a wide range of questions, including: how can sound be used in current academic disciplines? Is sound as a methodological tool indispensable for Sound Studies? What can sound artists contribute to the discourse on methodology in Sound Studies?
The editors also present three original chapters that work as provocative ‘sonic methodological interventions’, prefacing the three sections of the book.
