In Acoutic Territories. Sound Culture and Everyday Life Brandon LaBelle sets out to charts an urban topology through sound. Working his way through six acoustic territories: underground, home, sidewalk, street, shopping mall and sky/radio LaBelle investigates tensions and potentials inherent in modern culture as heard rather than as seen. LaBelle treats the material in his own distinct way adding a distinct imprint of cultural studies blended with his own essayistic signature, producing true findings and thoughtful reflections, but also leaving behind a few methodological question.
