5.0 out of 5 stars
essencial for anyone interested in sound art
This is an essencial book for anyone interested in sound art, or in installation art as a whole. It is a very well written historical review of sound art, theorically grounded, however using a simple and straight language.

More hippie nonsense
The author of this book, is arrogant, egomaniac, and in love with the sound of his own voice. His style of writing consists of long strings of run on sentences that almost always end with "in other words..." where he then takes the time to dumb down his speech for the reader.

This review is from: Background Noise: Perspectives on Sound Art (Paperback)
The author of this book, is arrogant, egomaniac, and in love with the sound of his own voice.
His style of writing consists of long strings of run on sentences that almost always end with "in other words..." where he then takes the time to dumb down his speech for the reader. If you're going to do that at the end of almost every sentence, why not write for the everyday man to begin with? "Sound art" is music. Not a bunch of bohemian hippies who didn't take the time to learn an instrument, banging on pots and pans, or rewiring electronic toys to make shrieks, squeaks, and pops. This book only further illustrates how far the art world has fallen. |
