LAS MEMORIAS DE THURSTON MOORE DE SONIC YOUTH MEJOR LIBRO DE MÚSICA DEL AÑO SEGÚN ROUGH TRADE, RESIDENT Y VANITY FAIR Thurston Moore se fue a vivir al East Village de Manhattan en 1978 con ansias de imbuirse de música y de discos. Quería sumergirse en las vistas y los sonidos del centro de Nueva York: la energía salvaje de sus clubes nocturnos, el rugido angular de sus bandas y las personalidades magnéticas que pululaban por sus calles. Pero, sobre todo, quería hacer música, crear sonidos indelebles que conmovieran, provocaran e inspiraran. Su sueño se hizo realidad en 1981 con Sonic Youth, banda que Moore montó con Kim Gordon —de quien esta editorial publicó sus memorias: "La chica del grupo"— y Lee Ranaldo. El grupo pronto se convirtió en un elemento fundamental de la floreciente escena «no wave» de Nueva York: una colisión vanguardista de arte y sonido, poesía y punk, o las enseñanzas de Glenn Branca filtradas por el prisma de los Ramones. Pasaron de ser los favoritos de la crítica musical a convertirse en un peso pesado del rock internacional, encabezando festivales en todo el mundo, contribuyendo a difundir artistas como Nirvana, Hole y Pavement, y...

From the founding member of Sonic Youth, a passionate memoir tracing the author's life and art—from his teen years as a music obsessive in small-town Connecticut, to the formation of his legendary rock group, to thirty years of creation, experimentation, and wonder "Downtown scientists rejoice! For Thurston Moore has unearthed the missing links, the sacred texts, the forgotten stories, and the secret maps of the lost golden age. This is history—scuffed, slightly bent, plenty noisy, and indispensable." —Colson Whitehead, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Underground Railroad and Harlem Shuffle Thurston Moore moved to Manhattan’s East Village in 1978 with a yearning for music. He wanted to be immersed in downtown New York’s sights and sounds—the feral energy of its nightclubs, the angular roar of its bands, the magnetic personalities within its orbit. But more than anything, he wanted to make music—to create indelible sounds that would move, provoke, and inspire. His dream came to life in 1981 with the formation of Sonic Youth, a band Moore cofounded with Kim Gordon and Lee Ranaldo. Sonic Youth became a fixture in New York’s burgeoning No Wave scene—an...

Sonic Fatigue Life Determination by Siren Testing

Sonic Fatigue Life Determination by Siren Testing

Autor: Preston W. Smith (jr.) , Charles I. Malme

Número de Páginas: 104

Experimental and theoretical researches were made on the problem of predicting the fatigue life of a resonant structure exposed to jet noise by testing it with intense sound from a siren. One panel design of Alclad 2024 aluminum was tested to fatigue with constant-amplitude and variable amplitude siren sounds and with jet noise. A close correlation of all three results was found. A comparison was also made of fatigue lifetimes of a resonant cantilever beam, of plain 2024 aluminum, measured with constant excitation amplitude (pure tone) and with random excitation. Random lifetimes were shorter than predictions from constant-amplitude data.

Development of a Suitable Anechoic Treatment for the ASD Sonic Fatigue Facility

Development of a Suitable Anechoic Treatment for the ASD Sonic Fatigue Facility

Autor: Franklin G. Tyzzer

Número de Páginas: 154

The design of an anechoic treatment the test chamber of the ASD high intensity sound facility is discussed. The acoustical requirements for 96% absorption coefficient at normal incidence for a frequency range of 50 - 7000 cps and for sound pressure levels up to 160 db and the mechanical requirements for a collapsible treatment presented novel problems in design. The requirements were met by a treatment, six feet thick, composed of six layers of absorbing material irregularly spaced with the acoustical resistances per layer increasing from values for layers at the incidence sound side to higher values for layers near the room surfaces. Tests in the high intensity impedance tube facility designed for the program showed that the normal incidence absorption coefficient of the treatment was 96% or higher over most of the frequency range from 50 - 7000 cps at sound pressure levels from 130 to 160 db. Fairly satisfactory results were also obtained for a five layer treatment subsequently designed. Etched polyurethane foam supported by wire screens was initially chosen as the layer material because of its resistance to damage in small scale life tests at particle velocities corresponding...
