Media opened music to sound, and made it universally available material for multiple collages. At the same time media puts music in the state of a constant murmuring drone, an incessant flowing. Music in the age of technical media continues to move between these two polarities. The outcome depends upon our creativity, and our competence, in both music and media. "Philosophy of Media Sounds, edited and introduced by Michael Schmidt, contains texts of Richard Wagner, Walter Benjamin, Roland Barthes, Theodor W. Adorno, Marshall McLuhan, John Cage, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari. The Reader reflects philosophically the clashes and resonances between music and media. Michael Schmidt, Ph.D. (University of Freiburg): John CageChair at European Graduate School, studied piano and did his doctoral work in musicology. He is currently Coordinator of Classical Music Online with Bavarian Radio and teaches "Strategies for the Media Future of Music" at the Ludwigs Maximilian Universitt and at the Universities of Music in Munich and Karlsruhe. Author and editor of "Ekstase als musikalisches Symbol", "Hat Musik ein Geschlecht?", "Zukunftsmusik fr Kulturwellen" and "Capriccio fr Siegfried Palm".
