(2019) Sound, media, ecology, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
Acoustic ecology made its international debut in 1977 with The Tuning of the World, the most popular and widely cited publication to emerge from the research carried out by the World Soundscape Project (WSP) under the direction of composer R. Murray Schafer. In this introduction to the volume, the editors re-center "acoustic ecology" and the ways in which the contributors in this collection are rethinking and re-inventing acoustic ecology across diverse fields, drawing on its focus on sensory experience, place and practice-based research, and attendance to social structures and politics. From sounding out the Anthropocene across diverse cultural contexts, to rethinking our auditory media landscapes, this volume brings acoustic ecology's central problems to questions around space, cultures, technology, and mediated sensorialities.
