Digital music: professional

The digital turn has created new opportunities for scholars across disciplines to use sound in their scholarship. This volume's contributors provide a blueprint for making sound central to research, teaching, and dissemination. They show how digital sound studies has the potential to transform silent, text-centric cultures of communication in the humanities into rich, multisensory experiences that are more inclusive of diverse knowledges and abilities. Drawing on multiple disciplines-including rhetoric and composition, performance studies, anthropology, history, and information science-the contributors to Digital Sound Studies bring digital humanities and sound studies into productive conversation while probing the assumptions behind the use of digital tools and technologies in academic life. In so doing, they explore how sonic experience might transform our scholarly networks, writing processes, research methodologies, pedagogies, and knowledges of the archive. As they demonstrate, incorporating sound into scholarship is thus not only feasible but urgently necessary.

Reviews for Digital Sound Studies

Digital Sound Studies contributors prompt productive conversations even while probing assumptions behind the use of digital tools and technologies in academia. . . . These essays explore the urgency and necessity of incorporating sonic experience into scholarly networks, writing processes, research methodologies, pedagogies, and knowledges of the archive. -- John F. Barber * Leonardo Reviews * Digital Sound Studies offers a fascinating variety of perspectives on digital sound studies ... Works that link digital humanities and sound studies are somewhat rare, and the present volume is a rich addition to a growing body of knowledge. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty and professionals. -- M. Anderson * Choice * Digital Sound Studies fuses theory and critical thinking with creative sonic practices, a fusion that is both promising and very appealing. -- Vincent Meelberg * Journal of Sonic Studies * This text provides a contemporary possibility of classroom and research work that is innovative and communal. The essays in Digital Sound Studies examine how sound is contained but held in the body, held through the body but heard through institutions and a cacophony of additional casual, aural effects. -- Kimberly Williams * Journal for the Society of American Music *
