Description

Explore the cultural evolution of karaoke through this scholarly study from Routledge. Originally a simple sing-along technology from 1970s Japan, karaoke has transformed into a massive multimillion-dollar entertainment industry. This book examines how the medium integrates popular music, video, and live performance to create a unique hybrid media form. Based on a detailed two-year ethnographic study, this work provides a deep look at how karaoke functions as a social practice. It examines how users engage with this technology to express, maintain, and reconstruct their identities within Chinese American communities. This title is an essential resource for those interested in how mass-mediated media and social practices shape human connection and cultural expression in a globalized world.
