Increasingly, sound is deliberately placed into art exhibitions from video art to installation, from performance to sound art. Sound is also incidentally present in the architectural environment, in the ambience of the space and the noise generated by the audience. To date there has been minimal scholarship directed towards the intricacies of sound within the bounds of the purportedly visual art gallery. The book aims to address this gap in knowledge through the examination of historical and contemporary sound in gallery environments. This will include the deliberate inclusion of sound in...

Sound is an integral part of contemporary art. Once understood to be a marginal practice, increasingly we encounter sound in art exhibitions through an array of sound making works in various art forms, at times played to very high audio levels. However, works of art are far from the only thing one might hear: music performances, floor talks, exhibition openings and the noisy background sounds that emanate from the gallery cafe fill contemporary exhibition environments.

This book presents the musical evolution of Coil, not merely as a passage between a range of musical styles from industrial to acid house, drone, glitch, and ambient but also as a spiraling vortex in and through which many of the key cultural events of the late 20th Century were mobilized and transformed. Coil traversed cultural experiences from the AIDS crisis of the 1980s to the late 1980s' new summer of love of acid house, to the revitalization of post-punk/industrial bands in the 2000s. These phenomena were transfigured in Coil's musical practices, generating a decentred perspective on...
