Its porous and contingent nature forgives a lack of formality, while its neglect of perfection and virtuosity releases the potential for the incomplete and the unrealizable. These seven essays on \u003ci\u003eThe Political Possibility of Sound\u003c\/i\u003e present a perfectly incomplete form for a discussion on the possibility of the political that includes creativity and invention, and articulates a politics that imagines transformation and the desire to embrace a connected and collaborative world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe themes of these essays emerge from and deepen discussions started in Voegelin's previous books, \u003ci\u003eListening to Noise and Silence\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSonic Possible Worlds\u003c\/i\u003e. Continuing the methodological juxtaposition of phenomenology and logic and writing from close sonic encounters each represents a fragment of listening to a variety of sound works, to music, the acoustic environment and to poetry, to hear their possibilities and develop words for what appears impossible. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs fragments of writing they respond to ideas on geography and migration, bring into play formless subjectivities and trans-objective identities, and practice collectivity and a sonic cosmopolitanism through the hearing of shared volumes. They involve the unheard and the in-between to contribute to current discussions on new materialism, and perform vertical readings to reach the depth of sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Salomé Voegelin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501312162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501312168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 14.80w x 0.70d","brand":"Salomé Voegelin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45265063084287,"sku":"9781501312168","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_511b433b-6a33-4d1b-b37d-030b7b827042.jpg?v=1713420041","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-political-possibility-of-sound-salom-voegelin-9781501312168","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
