Routledge Exploring the Ecologies of Music and Sound Book

In Exploring the Ecologies of Music and Sound, Makis Solomos examines the deep connections between our environment, mental well-being, and social structures. Drawing inspiration from Felix Guattari, this work looks at how capitalism impacts both the natural world and our ways of living and feeling. Solomos offers an ecosophical perspective that combines different ecological registers to find paths toward emancipation. This book connects the history of music with modern artivisms. It provides a deep look into acoustic ecology, contemporary music, and sound art through intersectional approaches. It is a vital resource for those studying how sound and music interact with the world around us. Whether you are researching social ecologies or the impact of sound art, this text provides a theoretical foundation for understanding these complex relationships in a modern context.
