Sonic Etiquette: Domestication of Acoustic Neighbourhood Relations in Istanbul<\/a> (2018) Meri Kyt\u00f6. A\u00a0sonic ethnography of a middle-class housing cooperative. I get a strong sense of site from this text. It has a nice introduction to concepts such as “acoustic orderliness” (the “endless task on empirical research” trough which people try to fit their habitat acoustically), “spatial segregation” (Kyt\u00f6 argues that “acoustic orderliness” is key in maintaining the segregation of particular groups) and “strategic intimacy” (“a tool with which we can cover, process and utilize status and class distinctions in <\/span>everyday\u00a0encounters”).<\/span><\/p>\n

My interest in the interface between private and communal sonic space is connected to the idea that the domestic sonic spaces of homes in densely built areas of big cities such as Istanbul are intertwined and overlapping. The acoustic space in apartments is porous and \ufb02owing: both the city as a public sonic space and neighbours\u2019 private lives penetrate the home, regardless of the walls. \u201cPrivate\u201d is not a separate part of culture but an area of life that is strongly dependent on values and the concept of the individual. As a historical concept, privacy has been strongly linked to the formation of the Western bourgeois nuclear family civic society. Privacy can also mean information management and hence an individual\u2019s right to self-determination, the formation of an autonomous and considerate citizen as a precondition for a democratic social order.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“Taiteen metsittymisest\u00e4 \u2013 Harjoitteita j\u00e4lkifossiilisiin oloihin<\/a>” [On the becoming-a-forest of Art \u2013 Exercises for postfossil conditions] (2018) ed.\u00a0Henna\u00a0Laininen. A book with texts from\u00a0Saara Hannula,\u00a0Markus Tuormaa,\u00a0Isla Peura,\u00a0Timo P. Vartiainen and\u00a0Henna Laininen. I’ve only read the “Esitys metsa\u0308n rajalla” [Performance on the edge of the forest] by Hannula. It’s good, she’s investigating how the forest is performed (in an example she deep-reads the visitor guide of the Paljakka Strict Nature Reserve). Hannula points to\u00a0Contingency and Complicity<\/a> (2011?) an essay by\u00a0Reza Negarestani, to argue that artistic processes which boast their openesess and promote un-authoritarianism, are often dependent on the artist ego, infrastructure and conventions, which sorts out unwanted audience behaviour and risks. Instead of fake-openness \u2013 Artists should turn to\u00a0complicity and\u00a0closure.<\/p>\n

The Crisis of Intimacy in the Age of Digital Connectivity<\/a> (2018) Stephen Marche. A well written essay on internet’s effect on intimacy. Apparently Bill Clinton introduced the phrase \u201cI feel your pain” in the \u201990s. The author believes that people are returning to a believe that words have magical effects \u2013 Which is why political correctness is over exemplified, while empathy is diminishing.<\/p>\n

The incipient political catastrophe in the United States can be summed up in a phrase: nobody believes the other\u2019s pain is real. Nobody believes the other\u2019s pain is meaningful; nobody recognizes anybody else\u2019s pain. It is the central problem of internet-provoked outrage and loathing, the hyper-partisanship that turns on so many hinges. Nobody is willing to accept the other\u2019s description of their feelings.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
