Sound in the Cinema and Beyond

This introduction lays out the themes for this issue and provides an in-depth overview of the material found within. There are two ways to read this: as a single self-contained essay (downloadable as a PDF through the link below), or broken down into the series of short pieces that begins with my opening remarks on the home page, and then continues with the introductions to each individual essay and forum throughout the issue.

Acknowledgments

This issue owes a lot to a group of people who have given generously of their time and talents. I would like to thank: Sean Lindsay and Gareth Hedges for their editorial work on the three forums; Nadine Asswad, Brian Crane, Owen Livermore, Janos Sitar, and Charles Stankievech for their editorial work on the feature essays; Pierre-Alexandre Despatis and Adam Rosadiuk for the graphic and technical design of this issue; and Donato Totaro for providing the venue that has allowed this project to come to fruition, in addition to all the technical and editorial support he provided during the final stages of production. And of course none of this would have been possible without the fine contributions found herein, and so I thank all the authors who participated. Congratulations to everyone for their excellent work!
