ダウンロード Sound Practices and Ideas in Contemporary China pdf 本

From the late 1990s until today, China's sound practice has been developing in an increasingly globalized social-economic-aesthetic environment, receiving attentions and investments from the art world, music industry and cultural institutes, along with an ambiguous attitude from the public about its legitimate artistic and academic status. While sound gains its increasing philosophical and artistic importance in the West, it has always been an important aesthetic and philosophical thread in Chinese history. The book examines sound practices in China, in their historical, technological, cultural and artistic contexts, from the 1990s through the present. Particularly, the book engages with artists, musicians, and their ideas, works and influences and offers a new perspective on understanding of China today.
