"Static in the System analyzes the relationship between American aural cultural history and cinema. Focusing specifically on the field of cinema culture...the envelope that surrounds and conditions our experience of cinema as an art form...Meredith C. Ward discusses how the aural culture of a given time period has enabled certain types of listening cultures to form. Analyzing which forms of listening have been dominant in various periods, she also discusses how noise...that commonly used but little-understood term...helps us to make sense of the ongoing conflicts underlying these moments, and where we have, historically, set the limits of 'desirable' and 'undesirable' sound"...Provided by publisher
