This topic is of great interest to me, but I think his The New Analog: Listening and Reconnecting in a Digital World from just a couple of years ago was quite a bit better. I just sort of left me feeling somewhat unfulfilled. If interested in the topic, I'd start with his previous one. ( ) A very good book that’s really a better podcast. Damon Krukowski is very smart about how digital and analog audio are different NOT just as applies to contemporary recording of music, but also in how modern listeners interact with what they hear in non-musical contexts. The podcast, as an audible object, uses many techniques and opportunities for the listener to hear the points that Krukowski and his guests are making. In book form, all the spoken text is there, with one or two additions (primarily a foreword by Emily Thompson, a historian who has researched changes in “aural culture” in America in the early 20th century), but the busy graphic design really doesn’t make up for the lack of the richness and actual inofrmation that the podcast’s sound design provides. Is it possible to post a link to the podcast version in a Goodreads review? https://www.radiotopia.fm/showcase/ways-of-hearing I guess so. And, note that the podcast page includes a recording of Krukowski talking with the MIT Press staff he worked with to turn the podcast into a printed book about how they thought about this process. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
A writer-musician examines how the switch from analog to digital audio is changing our perceptions of time, space, love, money, and power. Our voices carry farther than ever before, thanks to digital media. But how are they being heard In this book, Damon Krukowski examines how the switch from analog to digital audio is changing our perceptions of time, space, love, money, and power. In Ways of Hearing--modeled on Ways of Seeing, John Berger's influential 1972 book on visual culture--Krukowski offers readers a set of tools for critical listening in the digital age. Just as Ways of Seeing began as a BBC television series, Ways of Hearing is based on a six-part podcast produced for the groundbreaking public radio podcast network Radiotopia. Inventive uses of text and design help bring the message beyond the range of earbuds. Each chapter of Ways of Hearing explores a different aspect of listening in the digital age: time, space, love, money, and power. Digital time, for example, is designed for machines. When we trade broadcast for podcast, or analog for digital in the recording studio, we give up the opportunity to perceive time together through our media. On the street, we experience public space privately, as our headphones allow us to avoid "ear contact" with the city. Heard on a cell phone, our loved ones' voices are compressed, stripped of context by digital technology. Music has been dematerialized, no longer an object to be bought and sold. With recommendation algorithms and playlists, digital corporations have created a media universe that adapts to us, eliminating the pleasures of brick-and-mortar browsing. Krukowski lays out a choice: do we want a world enriched by the messiness of noise, or one that strives toward the purity of signal only. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
