Two figures who have, in very different ways, had crucial impacts on contemporary understandings of the experience of listening to recorded music discuss questions of listening, audio definition, and what, as listeners, our choices regarding what we listen to and how are doing to music. >> George Massenburg’s first big move was as an inventor of parametric EQ. More recently, his engineering and producing credits include records by Billy Joel, Philip Glass, Randy Newman, The Dixie Chicks, and Dolly Parton. He has won Grammys as a producer, for Best Engineered Non-Classical Record, and (one of only four ever awarded) Technical Achievement, and has been recognized by the Academy of Country Music (Record Of The Year ("The Trio")), and the Mix Magazine TEC Awards. >> Jonathan Sterne is Professor of Art History and Communication Studies at 91ɬÂţ. He is author of MP3: The Meaning of a Format and The Audible Past: Cultural Origins of Sound Reproduction; and numerous articles on media, technologies and the politics of culture.
