The Early Domestic Record Industry: Edison Bell Penkala, Elektroton and Jugoton

Editors: Naila Ceribašić, Dora Dunatov and Jelka Vukobratović

For the studies brought together in this volume, music is no longer necessarily something marked by notation or its absence; for them, music is also something that can be recorded phonographically. In other words, instead of records in the register of the symbolic, this volume considers music that is recordable and recorded in the register of the real. […] If this extensive and multifaceted book offers a kind of history, analysis, and anthropology of domestic musical culture in the twentieth century, it also provides a view of the present, of today’s disputes and problems in dealing with the musical heritage of the previous century.

Lecture, Charles Wolfe: LEARNing the City in Transformative Times

The future of our cities and the urban life has become more hotly debated than ever in the wake of the huge upheaval brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic. Terms such as authenticity, culture, character, and uniqueness are thrown around in discussions about the kind of urban environments we want to live in. But what do they really mean?
Charles Wolfe will address his new book with Tigran Haas, Sustaining a City’s Culture and Character, which explores how we can understand and respond sensitively, thoughtfully and creatively to the individual needs of each public place, neighbourhood, or city, creating an urban world that is distinctive and desirable to live in.
