After fifty years of official existence and a marked expansion since the outset of the 21st century, why is there still no history of sound design?

To explain the specificities of sound design, this work alternates examinations of industrial cultures generally cut off from one another, teasing out connections between eras,... After fifty years of official existence and a marked expansion since the outset of the 21st century, why is there still no history of sound design?

To explain the specificities of sound design, this work alternates examinations of industrial cultures generally cut off from one another, teasing out connections between eras, practices, fields, and objects usually not mentioned in the same breath. Adopting a literary, subjective approach, it applies the exercise of sound criticism to urban spaces as well as carbonated drinks, alarms and art installations alike. Through sound design and its current development as a tool for social engineering, the broader social and political issue of surveillance in the 21st century emerges. This work invites readers to take a new approach in the way they listen to daily life, awakening their critical ear.
