Abstract
The special issue explores how homes are built, made, imagined, remembered and (re)created through any form of sonic and aural activity (such as speaking, praying, singing, playing, hearing, dreaming sound/home). How do people physically, emotionally and psychologically find or create their space in an auditory chaos (LaBelle)? In what ways do sounds tune bodies to places (Feld) and what does such a nexus between the material and the social tell us about the relational positions in space and time that these bodies assume through temporary sensory experience? Such perspectives emphatically include modes of sonically, aurally or musically understanding or knowing processes of home-making.
