Tony Schwartz

from NPR's On the Media
In his 84 years Tony Schwartz produced over 30,000 recordings, thousands of groundbreaking political ads, media theory books and Broadway sound design, invented the portable recorder, delivered hundreds of lectures and had full careers as an ad executive and a pioneering folklorist. And he did it all without leaving his zip code. Schwartz died in June and we offer a piece from the Kitchen Sisters, looking back at his life spent listening.

Public Hearing

This started as just a set of links distributed to classes over the past several years but has now expanded somewhat to include more sound art, radio, field recordings and other links related to the creative non musical use of sound. It is in no way complete, so please forward suggestions to pvonzweck [at] yahoo [dot] com
