Bodies of Sound: Becoming a Feminist Ear

With contributions from:

‘I am concerned with the power of sound! and what it can do to the body and the mind, ‘ wrote composer Pauline Oliveros. In the body, histories and politics come together with sound and listening, memory and feeling.

Bodies of Sound offers a resonant exploration of feminist sonic cultures and radical listening in over fifty contributions. In this book of echoes, a variety of forms – from essays to text scores to art, fiction and memoir – speak across gender, ways of knowing, witnessing, sounding and voicing, translation, displacement, violence and peace.
