Amongst Walls, Fences and Armored Cars; Acoustic Labor and Sound Praxis in Post-industrial Society

Abstract

Two concepts of Marxian inspiration, derived from the author’s research on different music domains in Brazil and their relationships with notions of time, labor and politics, deploy a reflexive thinking over the articulation between macro and micropolitical levels in his nearly ten-year experience in the field of participatory action-research on sonic-musical praxis.
