Consuming Music in the Digital Age investigates the ways young individuals obtain music, listen to it and are affected by it in the age of digital music technologies. In exploring questions related to the material and technological modalities of contemporary modes of music consumption; to the diffusion of music within everyday life; to individuals' affective responses to music; to their tastes and to the relevance of music within their life narratives, this book aims to highlight how music increasingly represents an essential resource in contemporary societies. It offers a much-needed update to theories from the sociology of music on individual music listening practices, while also accounting for the various ways in which structural elements mediate various contexts of music consumption.

Curating Pop: Exhibiting Popular Music in the Museum

Istvandity, Lauren

Baker, Sarah

Bloomsbury Academic

Curating Pop speaks to the rapidly growing interest in the study of popular music exhibitions, which has occurred alongside the increasing number of popular music museums in operation across the world. Focusing on curatorial practices and processes, this book draws on interviews with museum workers and curators from twenty museums globally, including the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, the Experience Music Project in Seattle and the PopMuseum in Prague. Through a consideration of the subjective experiences of curators involved in the exhibition of popular music in museums in a range of geographic locations, Curating Pop compares institutional practices internationally, illustrating the ways in which popular music history is presented to visitors in a wider sense.
