Beskrivning
Listening, Belonging, and Memory puts connected listening at the center of current debates around whose voices might be listened to, who by, and why. Arguing that listening has to be understood in relation to the self, nation, age, witnessing, and memory, it uses examples from digital storytelling, listening projects, and critical media analysis to highlight connections between listening and power. It centers on voices, stories, and silence, how they interweave, and are activated, maneuvered, reconfigured, and denied. It focuses on the small, microengagementsthat crouch within the superstructures of violent border control and the censorious policing of sonic citizenry, identifying cracks in the reshuffling of histories and hierarchies that connected listening affords.

Recensioner i media

Gardner does for sound what Ellis did for vision in Seeing Things (2000), establish listening as witnessing, working through and in this book as thinking with your ears. Immersed as we are in podcasts, music streaming, radio, political speech, text-to-audio machine learning, and voices from the analogue past re-mastered, Gardner’s book is very timely. Listening, Belonging, and Memory addresses the multi-modality of contemporary listening, but also the social justice rationale for proper and careful listening in an age of multiple and conflicting claims to free speech in our slogan-dominated visual culture.
