Description

This book presents a philosophical analysis of the rising interest in the notion of noise. The term noise no longer pertains only to aesthetic judgement, for instance of acoustic or visual noise, but also to domains as varied as communication theory, physics and biology. This book investigates if there can be a coherent understanding of noise that is effectively shared among the natural-and human sciences, technology and the arts, revealing noise to be a properly philosophical problem. Drawing the philosophical consequences of noise for the theory of knowledge, a philosophical revaluation of C. Shannon and W. Weavers theory of information entropy here serves as a basis upon which to problematize the common idea that noise can be reduced to notions of error, disorder or disorganization. The wider consequences of this analysis relate the technological and scientific aspect of noise with its cultural and psycho-social aspects. The heart of Malaspina's argument is the contestation of the ground upon which we judge and distinguish noise from information, finally exploring its emancipatory potential.
