Books about noise/experimental music

[Balor/SS1535]

Although looks interesting I am almost sure that if I read it I will understand nothing, haha. Part my bad English, part my ignorance, big part of what it is , as it is stated : "This book aims to introduce the visual and aesthetic elements of industrial culture to a general history of contemporary art by analysing ..." . Book's purpose, I don't care at all.

Also is author having a genuine interest in industrial or was it just a task / research / job ?

Interested to read reviews too, by fans, not 'art' guys.

You are right. Seems all of his work is related.

Although the book is based on research and interviews done for his PhD dissertation in Art History, I wouldn't say he's a tourist defecting from academia. He's curating exhibitions at Centre Pompidou (one on the NYC No Wave scene recently), he has edited books on GP-O and SRL, and performs with Cent Ans De Solitude. In the video interview he mentioned going to the Wroclaw industrial festival. So yes, his credentials are real.
