This presents an alternative to those urban soundscape design approaches concerned with managing the negative health impacts of noise. Instead, urban noise is considered to be a creative material and cultural expression that can be reshaped with citywide networks of sonic installations.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e By applying affect theory the urban is imagined as an unfolding of the \u003ci\u003eAffective Earth, \u003c\/i\u003eand noise as its homogenous (and homogenizing) voice. It is argued that noise is an expressive material with which sonic practitioners can interface, to increase the creative possibilities of urban life. At the heart of this argument is the question of \u003ci\u003erelationships\u003c\/i\u003e: how do we augment and diversify those interconnections that weave together the imaginative life and the expressions of the land?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The book details seven sound installations completed by the author as part of a creative practice research process, in which the \u003ci\u003esonic rupture model\u003c\/i\u003e was discovered. The sonic rupture model, which aims to diversify human experiences and urban environments, encapsulates five soundscape design approaches and ten practitioner intentions. Multiple works of international practitioners are explored in relation to the discussed approaches.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eSonic Rupture\u003c\/i\u003e provides the domains of sound art, music, creative practice, urban design, architecture and environmental philosophy with a unique perspective for understanding those affective forces, which shape urban life. The book also provides a range of practical and conceptual tools for urban soundscape design that can be applied by the sonic practitioner.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jordan Lacey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501338579\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501338571\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Continnuum-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/28\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Jordan Lacey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935197167871,"sku":"9781501338571","price":47.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3ec4b0ce-596b-4c23-89ec-ca5a0c895b92.jpg?v=1681418420","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sonic-rupture-jordan-lacey-9781501338571","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
