Description
Sonic Possible Worlds: Hearing the Continuum of Sound by Salomé Voegelin explores how sound shapes our understanding of the world and ourselves. Drawing on philosophical concepts, Voegelin examines the sonic possibilities that underlie our everyday experiences and artistic expressions. By considering the ways in which sound can be used to rethink normative constructions, Voegelin's work offers a new perspective on the relationship between sound, art, and politics. This revised edition continues to develop her ideas on the sonic possibility of the world, including its potential to fabulate alternative bodies and challenge our assumptions about what it means to exist. Through an analysis of various musical and artistic works, Voegelin demonstrates the radical power of sonic philosophy to create new possibilities for thought and expression.
