Eco-Sonic Media brings an ecological critique to the history of sound media technologies in order to amplify the environmental undertones in sound studies and turn up the audio in discussions of greening the media. By looking at early and neglected forms of sound technology, Jacob Smith seeks to create a revisionist, ecologically aware history of sound media. Delving into the history of pre-electronic media like hand-cranked gramophones, comparatively eco-friendly media artifacts such as the shellac discs that preceded the use of petroleum-based vinyl, early forms of portable technology like divining rods, and even the use of songbirds as domestic music machines, Smith builds a scaffolding of historical case studies to demonstrate how 'green media archaeology' can make sound studies vibrate at an ecological frequency while opening the ears of eco- criticism. Throughout this eye-opening and timely book he makes readers more aware of the costs and consequences of their personal media consumption by prompting comparisons with non-digital, non-electronic technologies and by offering different ways in which sound media can become eco-sonic media. In the process, he forges interdisciplinary connections, opens new avenues of research, and poses fresh theoretical questions for scholars and students of media, sound studies, and contemporary environmental history"--Provided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Sound recordings|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85125391|xEnvironmental aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005383 650 0 Sound|xRecording and reproducing|xEquipment and supplies |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85125370 |xEnvironmental aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005383 650 0 Audio equipment industry|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85009456|xEnvironmental aspects.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005383 650 0 Sound|xRecording and reproducing|xEquipment and supplies |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85125370 |xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99005024 650 0 Sound in mass media|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh00003976|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Sound recordings.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1127034 650 7 Sound|xRecording and reproducing|xEquipment and supplies. |2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1126961 650 7 Audio equipment industry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/821026 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Sound in mass media.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1127005 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aSmith, Jacob, 1970-|tEco-sonic media. |bFirst edition|z9780520286139|w(DLC) 2014043916 |w(OCoLC)897001639 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=971385|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
