Note(s) : "A room's acoustic character seems at once the most technical and the most mystical
of concerns. Since the early Enlightenment, European architects have systematically
endeavored to represent and control the propagation of sound in large interior spaces.
Their work has been informed by the science of sound but has also been entangled with
debates on style, visualization techniques, performance practices, and the expansion
of the listening public. Echo's Chambers explores how architectural experimentation
from the seventeenth through the mid-twentieth centuries laid the groundwork for concepts
of acoustic space that are widely embraced in contemporary culture. It focuses on
the role of echo and reverberation in the architecture of Pierre Patte, Claude-Nicolas
Ledoux, Carl Ferdinand Langhans, and Le Corbusier, as well as the influential acoustic
ideas of Athanasius Kircher, Richard Wagner, and Marshall McLuhan. Drawing on interdisciplinary
theories of media and auditory culture, Joseph L. Clarke reveals how architecture
has impacted the ways we continue to listen to, talk about, and creatively manipulate
sound in the physical environment."
