Sound|Archive. Einleitung in den Schwerpunkt

Author(s): Holl, UteWelinder, Emanuel

Abstract

Colonial archives of the 19th and 20th century rely not only on texts and administrative facilities but also increasingly on analog media and their medical, forensic, and racializing orders. Visual colonial archives of photography and cinematography, with their methods of recording, fragmenting, and categorizing living bodies, have been well researched. However, the special issue Sound|Archives focuses on acoustic archives and media, as well as colonial archival techniques and practices, which are always involved in the violent production of the subaltern Other. The recorded and filtered sounds and voices raise questions about listening experiences, historiographies, and memory cultures that need to be re-examined in light of decolonial approaches.
