  • Sonic Intimacy asks us who―or what―deserves to have a voice, beyond the human. Arguing that our ears are far too narrowly attuned to our own species, the book explores four different types of voices: the cybernetic, the gendered, the creaturely, and the ecological. Through both a conceptual framework and a series of case studies, Dominic Pettman tracks some of the ways in which these voices intersect and interact. He demonstrates how intimacy is forged through the ear, perhaps even more than through any other sense, mode, or medium. The voice, then, is what creates intimacy, both fleeting and lasting, not only between people, but also between animals, machines, and even natural elements: those presumed not to have a voice in the first place. Taken together, the manifold, material, actual voices of the world, whether primarily natural or technological, are a complex cacophony that is desperately trying to tell us something about the rapidly failing health of the planet and its inhabitants. As Pettman cautions, we would do well to listen. Dominic Pettman is Professor of Culture and Media at Eugene Lang College and The New School for Social Research. His most recent book is Infinite Distraction: Paying Attention to Social Media (2016). Contents and AbstractsIntroduction: The Aural Phase chapter abstractThis opening section introduces the notion of vox mundi (voice of the world) by emphasizing the primary role of the wider soundscape in the origins of selfhood and the process of subjectification. In doing so, it outlines the fundamental historical-cultural distinction between voice and sound (as first detailed by Aristotle) before asking what kind of nonhuman voices our own noisy and presumptuous humanism prevents us from hearing.
