Songs emanate instantaneously and almost magically from our computers and phones. Tools for playing and making music, such as recordings and guitars, wait for us in stores, ready for purchase with no assembly required. And when we're done with this stuff, we can kick it to the curb, where it disappears effortlessly and without a trace. Day-to-day musical enjoyment seems so simple, so easy, so automatic. But it isn't. This book digs beneath such surface-level encounters to reveal the infrastructural dimensions of music and listening. It takes nothing for granted about the manufacture, delivery, or disposal of music's material and human bases. These infrastructural phenomena encompass the interrelated material, organizational, and ideological systems that facilitate three main phases in the social life and social death of musical commodities: (1) resources and production, (2) circulation and transmission, (3) failure and waste. The book asks how these three phases influence and respond to aesthetic conventions, material-environmental realities, and political-economic conditions in both industrializing and industrialized parts of the world. Although sawmills, mineshafts, power grids, telecoms networks, transport systems, and junk piles may seem peripheral to musical culture, Audible Infrastructures shows that all these humble things and their ordinary people are actually pivotal to what music is, how it works, and why it matters. Undertaking a concerted archaeology of music's media infrastructures is thus a means of understanding society and of knowing ourselves-and it is a step toward the reorientation of our musical cultures"-- $c Provided by publisher 650 0 $a Music $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Music trade $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Music $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Music and technology. 650 6 $a Musique $x Aspect social. 650 6 $a Musique $x Aspect social. $x Aspect social. 650 6 $a Musique $x Aspect de l'environnement. 650 6 $a Musique et technologie. 650 7 $a Music and technology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030490 650 7 $a Music $x Environmental aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030319 650 7 $a Music $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030444 700 1 $a Devine, Kyle, $e editor. 700 1 $a Boudreault-Fournier, Alexandrine, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Audible infrastructures. $d New York, New York : Oxford University Press, 2021 $z 9780190932664 $w (DLC) 2020025323 830 0 $a Critical conjunctures in music & sound. 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20240724074639.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E5DDDA4A214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
