Sound: Listening, Hearing, Observing

New

This work can rightly be called an introduction to the methodology of sound studies.

Michel Chion is a theorist of cinema and sound, a follower of composer Pierre Schaeffer, and one of the first researchers of sound texture in cinema. He... is the author of several important works on Kubrick, Lynch, and Tati. The subject of this book is not music, film soundtracks, or other forms of audio separation, but sound as such. Chion consistently analyzes different approaches to the study of sound, so his focus includes acoustics, linguistics, psychology, art history, and phenomenology equally.

The work contains a wealth of original conclusions, often formed in polemics with other researchers. The author's extensive erudition, interest in modern technologies, and special gift for attentive listening attract readers interested in the harmonies and noises surrounding us.
