The Gender of Sound - Anne Carson Installation published L’architettura moderna in GiapponeHuman history is filled with unacceptable sounds: high pitched voices, gossip, talkativeness, hysteria, wailing and ritual shouts. Who makes them? Those deviant from or deficient in the masculine ideal of self control: women, catamites, eunuchs and androgynes all fall into this category.  From the myths of antiquity to Margaret Thatcher via Sigmund Freud and Gertrude Stein, The Gender of Sound charts the gendering of sound in Western culture.
