Hello everyone,

I am doing some research into what I want to refer to as "the aural turn" in
film theory, as signalled in the works of Chion, Rosolato, and the several
anthologies on sound (Belton, et al). I am wondering whether anyone is aware
of any literature out there that offers a meta-critique/assessment of this
historical evolution in filmic discourse?

And on a related topic  ... is anyone familiar with any articles that
theorize the role of silence (aka dead space) in the talking head
documentary form?

Thank you, as always, Angelica Fenner
