SUMMARY:Sonic Entanglements: Sound, Archive, and Acoustic Historiographies in Southeast Asia (1)
LOCATION:Room 1.502
DESCRIPTION:Sound studies and sound history now asserts itself as a crucial
  discipline, yet Mark Smith (2004) noted the absence of historical work on 
 non-Western sounds, and Veit Erlmann (2004) raise the absence of “current d
 ebates of Third World scholars interested in auditory perception.” This pan
 el brings together into conversation cultural historians, musicologists, an
 d sound scholars working on sound history, epistemologies of listening, and
  theoretical ontologies of the sound archives about SEA. The panel critique
 s Benedict Anderson’s (1991) notion of modernity built on print capitalism,
  and engages sound history in exploring acoustemology (acoustic epistemolog
 y) as a decolonial methodology in understanding SEA modernities. This is cr
 itical if we are to consider that in the colonial territories, less than te
 n percent were literate to the printed language (Ricklefs et al. 2010, Nath
 an 1922). Thus, this print illiteracy is used to justify the absence of sub
 altern SEA ‘voices’ in modern historiography. Taking this into consideratio
 n, this double panel of six presenters will address three overarching theme
 s:\n\nAcoustic Mobilities. What paradigmatic shifts transpired with the rec
 onfiguration of new modes of mobilities and communication technology in the
  nineteenth and twentieth centuries? In rethinking about early sound histor
 iographies of SEA, how do we account for the social lives of human laborers
 , socio- cultural actors, and sound objects migrating to different regions,
  nations, and institutions in Southeast Asia?\n\nSonic Knowledge. How did t
 he early sound recordings constitute and construct knowledges and understan
 dings of modernities in SEA: i.e. ‘modern’ race epistemologies, notions of 
 modern state (and/or urban) institutions and citizenship, and the emergence
  of a transnational cultural/media industry? How did the materiality of the
  early sound technologies mediate sonic discourses of global modernities am
 ong communities in the SEA? How do we take into account the mediality of th
 e early recording technologies as the very epistemes of SEA modernities?\n\
 nListening Societies/Communities. How did listening constitute the imagined
  (trans)national and translocal communities in SEA? What theoretical tools 
 and methodologies can we employ to better understand these transregional co
 nditions and processes? In working with nation-based sound archives: How do
  we engage the materials that are stored in archives of the different post-
 imperial centers and peripheries, and on the other hand, documents catalogu
 ed in different languages of the postcolonial societies and previous coloni
 zers? Furthermore, how do we deal with the challenges in the limits of thei
 r institutional and ‘ownership’ policies?
