Now & Again Magazine – Sound

Sound — the noises we hear in common spaces, processes shaping the creation of music, and the many ways in which we listen. In this issue of Now & Again, contributors across various artistic disciplines examine the familiarity and inherent enigma of this everyday phenomenon.

In this issue:

• A musician writes about his internal conflict while trying to compose a piece
• Illustrations of cover art, inspired by crowd-sourced interpretations of instrumental music
• Interview with #vinyloftheday, a music community platform, about record culture and the vinyl community in Singapore.
• Five people scattered around the world record their surrounding sounds for nine months, using only a sketchbook and a disposable film camera
