This book, which orig- inally appeared as a special issue of TDR/The Drama Review, explores the myriad aesthetic, cultural, and experi- editor mental possibilities of radiophony and sound art. Taking the approach that there is no single entity that constitutes “radio,” but rather a multitude of radios, the essays explore various aspects of its apparatus, practice, forms, and utopias. The approaches include historical, 0-262-73130-4 Jean Wilcox jacket design by political, popular cultural, archeological, semiotic, and feminist.

Acoustic Weapons Aim to Use the Propagation of Sound – a Variation in Pressure That Travels Through a Fluid Medium (Such As Air) to Affect a Target
Acoustic (or sonic) weapons are under research and development DISCUSSION PAPER| NOV 2018 in a few countries and have been the subject of interest and much speculation for several decades.1 Such devices have repeatedly captured the interest of the press, most recently when it was reported in 2016 that several staff members at the American em- bassy in Cuba were allegedly ‘subjected to an “acoustic attack” using sonic devices’ that caused serious health problems.2 Neurol- ogists and engineers have challenged this claim.3 Acoustic weapons aim to use the propagation of sound – a variation in pressure that travels through a fluid medium (such as air) to affect a target. Most of the acoustic weapons that have been speculated Acoustic Weapons upon are based on either ultrasound (above 20 kilohertz, kHz), low frequencies (below 100 hertz, Hz) or infrasound (below 20 Hz) deployed at high levels.4 The human range of hearing is commonly given as between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. In reality, the upper hear- ing-threshold frequency decreases significantly with age, whereas sounds with lower frequencies can be heard and otherwise perceived if the level is high enough.5 Discussion paper for the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW) Although a few acoustic devices exist today that could be used as weapons, and sound is implicated in the use of force in the military and law enforcement domains in various ways, the potential for wea- Geneva, November 2018* ponization of acoustic devices has likely been overstated.6 Recent scientific analyses have debunked myths and disproven earlier claims Article 36 is a UK-based not-for-profit organisation working to promote public about the effects of acoustic devices on humans and have drawn scrutiny over the development and use of weapons. -
Sonic, Infrasonic, and Ultrasonic Frequencies
SONIC, INFRASONIC, AND ULTRASONIC FREQUENCIES: The Utilisation of Waveforms as Weapons, Apparatus for Psychological Manipulation, and as Instruments of Physiological Influence by Industrial, Entertainment, and Military Organisations. TOBY HEYS A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Liverpool John Moores University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2011 1 ABSTRACT This study is a trans-disciplinary and trans-historical investigation into civilian and battlefield contexts in which speaker systems have been utilised by the military-industrial and military-entertainment complexes to apply pressure to mass social groupings and the individuated body. Drawing on authors such as historian/sociologist Michel Foucault, economist Jacques Attali, philosopher Michel Serres, political geographer/urban planner Edward Soja, musician/sonic theorist Steve Goodman, and cultural theorist/urbanist Paul Virilio, this study engages a wide range of texts to orchestrate its arguments. Conducting new strains of viral theory that resonate with architectural, neurological, and political significance, this research provides new and original analysis about the composition of waveformed geography. Ultimately, this study listens to the ways in which the past and current utilisation of sonic, infrasonic, and ultrasonic frequencies as weapons, apparatus for psychological manipulation, and instruments of physiological influence, by industrial, civilian, entertainment, and military organisations, predict future techniques of socio spatialised organisation. In chapter one it is argued that since the inception of wired radio speaker systems into U.S. industrial factories in 1922, the development of sonic strategies based primarily on the scoring of architectonic spatiality, cycles of repetition, and the enveloping dynamics of surround sound can be traced to the sonic torture occurring in Guantanamo Bay during the first decade of the twenty-first century. -
