| - | '''Sound culture''' is an [[interdisciplinary]] field of studies which considers the "the material production and consumption of [[music]], [[sound]], [[noise]] and [[silence]], and how these have changed throughout history and within different societies, but does this from a much broader perspective then standard disciplines" (Pinch and Bijsterveld, 2004). | + | '''''The Soundscape of Modernity: Architectural Acoustics and the Culture of Listening in America, 1900–1933'''''.

| - | Sound Culture differs from traditional academic fields such as [[sociology of music]], [[ethnomusicology]] and [[history of music]] because it adopts a much broader perspective on music and sounds in the social world. Especially Sound studies are interested in the connection between the development of the highly complex contemporary society and the ways people developed in order to manage and rearrange objects, discourses and practices involved in the listening acts. | + | |
