It answers such intriguing questions as: Did people in Shakespeare's time hear differently from us? In what way does technology affect our ears? Why do people in Egypt increasingly listen to taped religious sermons? Why did Enlightenment doctors believe that music was an essential cure? What happens acoustically in cross-cultural first encounters? The ear, as much as the eye, nose, mouth and hand, defines experience. This book shows how sound offers a refreshing new lens through which to examine culture and complex social issues.

Résumé:
From Gordon Matta-Clark to Lawrence Weiner, Bruce Nauman to Alison Knowles, the question of site locates itself in issues of public space, at the intersection of the imagined and the real, at the juncture of performance and architectural production. By anthologizing essays, documents, and interviews by leading critics, historians, and artists on issues of site-specificity, conceptualism, feminism, and architecture practice, "Surface Tension" reveals the connections between cultural production and the very spaces in which such work functions. These textual explorations are complemented by extensive documentation of related projects, both historical and contemporary, by artists, architects, and performance artists, including 'Coughing Piece', a never-before released 1961 audio work by Yoko Ono; an obscure audio work by Nauman from 1969; projects by Suzanne Lacy, a leading figure in the development of conceptual practice and public art; and an experimental text by Jane Rendell on psychic architectures. Conversations occur between the pages of "Surface Tension", between theoretical analysis and modes of practice, that activate the publication as a site itself, one participating in a broad field of knowledge. Includes an audio CD of the sound art pieces. Artists Include: Gordon Matta-Clark, Lawrence Weiner,Jan Hofer, Melissa Dyne, Kim Abeles, Carol Brown, Christof Migone, Michael Rakowitz, Eyal Weizman, Rafael Lazano-Hemmer, Tanja Jordan, Lizzie Scott, Tim Durfee, Lize Mogel, Suzanne Lacy, Michael Asher, Bruce Nauman, Lucky Kitchen, Michael Prime, Alison Knowles, and Yoko Ono, amongst others.

Résumé:
Compositeur, architecte, mais aussi ingénieur civil et mathématicien, Iannis Xenakis (1922-2001), s'est sans répit investi dans la création, produisant une œuvre protéiforme marquée d'un engagement personnel indémenti. Né en Roumanie, il achève ses études en Grèce tout en s'engageant dans la Résistance durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il est gravement blessé puis condamné à mort dans son pays ; il est réfugié politique en France à partir de 1947, et débute sa carrière d'architecte chez Le Corbusier. Cet ouvrage rassemble pour la première fois l'ensemble des écrits de Iannis Xenakis consacrés à l'architecture et aux relations entre musique et architecture - à commencer par le texte fondateur «Musique, Architecture» (1971). Le dépouillement des archives personnelles de Xenakis a notamment révélé la richesse du matériel traitant d'architecture - articles, correspondances, conférences, écrits théoriques, réflexions programmatiques - complétant les esquisses et les projets architecturaux eux-mêmes. Complété d'un index critique illustré de l'ensemble des projets et réalisations (Sven Sterken), d'une large bibliographie (Makis Solomos) et d'un tableau chronologique biographique, le présent volume reprend le matériel originel de Xenakis (présenté et commenté par Sharon Kanach), structuré en quatre parties : «Les années Le Corbusier», «La ville cosmique et autres écrits», «Xenakis, architecte indépendant», «Les Polytopes».
