What is sound design? What is its function in the early 21st century and into the future? Sound Works examines these questions in four parts: Part 1, “Why This Sound?”, presents an overview of the modern history of sound design. Part 2 is highly visual and provides a glance onto a sound designer’s workbench and the current state of “Sonic Labor.” Part 3 uses cultural analysis to explore our contemporary “Living with Sounds.” The final and fourth part then proposes a series of anthropological and political interpretations of how “Sound Works” today.
