Sound Study will follow unexpected resonances, feedback, and musical migration around the world. Tune in for situated listening, original field recordings, and occasional interviews with guest DJs, artists, and scholars.
David Novak (Debabōchō) is an associate professor of ethnomusicology and the director of the Center for the Interdisciplinary Study of Music at UC Santa Barbara. His work examines transcultural relationships of media circulation, which he explores through multi-sited ethnographic research. His interests include remediation, sonic intersubjectivity, social practices of listening, and the creative politics of music technology. He is the author of Japanoise: Music at the Edge of Circulation and co-editor of Keywords in Sound with Matt Sakakeeny. His current book project, Diggers: A Counterhistory of Global Popular Music, theorizes musical globalization through contemporary histories of digital and analog sound media, particularly among networks of record and cassette collectors, informal sound archives, reissue labels and sound recording digitization projects in Southeast Asia.
