課程概述

(The syllabus shown on this website is currently not the latest version. Please refer to the printed syllabus provided in class. September 15, 2014)

Technological innovation has dramatically changed the way people relate to music over the past centuries, to the point where the ontological status of music has come under critical scrutiny. This historical transformation has never been one-directional, however, as is often presupposed in simplistic narratives of technological determinism, since musical practice and sonic imagination, in turn, have complicated the course of technological innovation, thus affecting the way audio devices and media take shape as they do. This graduate seminar intends to deepen our historical and theoretical understanding of the triangular interrelation and gradual interpenetration among media, machine, and music, with emphasis on exploring current issues in what is now generically called sound studies, a growing interdisciplinary field of study regarding various aspects of sound, noise, and silence.

NOTE: The coda of this seminar features Prof. Andrew Jones, the internationally renowned scholar of modern Chinese literature and popular culture at the University of California, Berkeley, who will join us for a lecture series entitled “Circuit Listening: Methodologies, Media, and Popular Music.” 

課程目標
This seminar consists of three major parts respectively dealing with; historical developments of sound reproduction technologies since the 19th century; the adaptation and appropriation by various actors of the art of sound recording; finally, music practices in the age of digital media. It aims at several objectives; a better understanding of the historicity and mutual construction of technologies and music as we know them; an interdisciplinary approach covering musicology, social history, anthropology, sociology, cultural studies, and science and technology studies (STS); consistent efforts to examine discussed issues and perspectives in East Asian contexts. 
課程要求
1. Every week two students are responsible for summarizing two required readings respectively and leading the week’s class discussion. Presentation materials such as a draft or a ppt file should be sent to the instructor and the teaching assistant (TA) no later than one day before each class. The TA will make their copies in advance. Presenters are recommended to utilize audio-visual materials to facilitate classmates’ understanding of their presentations and activate class discussion.
2. Class presentation at the end of the semester. All students are going to talk with the instructor to clarify a topic. A consulting schedule and relevant procedures to be announced in detail around the midterm period.
3. 5 - 10-page term paper based on class presentation. Due by email or by hand.
