- Synopsis
- Nineteen readings examine the social impact of this popular mobile digital device. Approaching hearing as a social act and technology from a Marxist perspective, Wittkower (philosophy, Coastal Carolina U.) asks questions about the relationship between the music we hear via the iPod, the artist, the "i" (self), and iPublic. Other contributors approach the iPod as creating a familiarity in a Wittgensteinian sense, as a new venue for philosophy audiobooks, and as a tool of white dominance, community, or isolation.
