Pages : 293
Book Description
A Grand Master of the British-style detective story brings Victorian England to vivid life in this murder mystery, which critic Anthony Boucher hailed as a “faultless formal puzzle in detection” In 1865, novelist Clive Strickland is relaxing at his club when his friend Victor Damon comes to him in a panic, begging Clive to help him marry off his sister to a cash-poor marquis whose affections reek of gold-digging. Victor doesn’t care. Something sinister lurks at High Chimneys and he wants his sisters out of the house before their lives are put in danger. Old Matthew Damon, their father, has long been dogged by scandalous rumors of solitary visits to the cells of women about to be hanged for murder. But when murder is done at High Chimneys, Strickland and private investigator Jonathan Whicher will have to sort out the rumors and look behind the discreetly drawn curtains of High Chimneys for a killer.
The Oxford Handbook of Sound Art
Author: Jane GrantPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190274077
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 888
Book Description
Sound art has long been resistant to its own definition. Emerging from a liminal space between movements of thought and practice in the twentieth century, sound art has often been described in terms of the things that it is understood to have left behind: a space between music, fine art, and performance. The Oxford Handbook of Sound Art surveys the practices, politics, and emerging frameworks of thought that now define this previously amorphous area of study. Throughout the Handbook, artists and thinkers explore the uses of sound in contemporary arts practice. Imbued with global perspectives, chapters are organized in six overarching themes of Space, Time, Things, Fabric, Senses and Relationality. Each theme represents a key area of development in the visual arts and music during the second half of the twentieth century from which sound art emerged. By offering a set of thematic frameworks through which to understand these themes, this Handbook situates constellations of disparate thought and practice into recognized centers of activity.
Score for a Hole in the Ground
Author: Jem FinerPublisher:
ISBN: 9780955871900
Category : Sound installations (Art)
Languages : en
Pages : 79
Book Description
Score for a Hole in the Ground is a triple award winning work. Having been the recipient of the first PRS Foundation New Music Award, it went on to receive the Rouse Kent Public Art Award and the British Composer Award for New Media. Inspired by suikinkutsu water chimes found in temple gardens of Japan, Score for a Hole in the Ground uses tuned percussive instruments, played by falling water, to create music. Finer describes his piece as 'both music and an integrated part of the landscape and the forces that operate on it and in it'. The sound element of this piece is extremely subtle. It requires time to allow the visitor to tune their ear to the level of sound and is affected by weather and ambient noise.
