PALGRAVE STUDIES IN AUDIO-VISUAL CULTURE SERIES EDITOR: K.J.DONNELLY
Palgrave Studies in Audio-Visual Culture Series Editor K. J. Donnelly School of Humanities University of Southampton Southampton, UK
The aesthetic union of sound and image has become a cultural dominant. A junction for aesthetics, technology and theorisation, film’s relationship with music remains the crucial nexus point of two of the most popular arts and richest cultural industries. Arguably, the most interesting area of culture is the interface of audio and video aspects, and that film is the flagship cultural industry remains the fount and crucible of both industrial developments and critical ideas. Palgrave Studies in Audio-Visual Culture has an agenda-setting aspiration. By acknowledging that radical technological changes allow for rethinking existing relationships, as well as existing histories and the efficacy of conventional theories, it provides a platform for innovative scholarship pertaining to the audio-visual. While film is the keystone of the audio visual continuum, the series aims to address blind spots such as video game sound, soundscapes and sound ecology, sound psychology, art installations, sound art, mobile telephony and stealth remote viewing cultures.
