TY - JOUR TI - Muzyka bez nośnika?  Powietrze, chmury i strumienie oraz cyfry, taśmy i winyle w walce o pierwosłuch lub zapomnienie AU - Nożyński, Szymon AU - Okólski, Marek TI - Muzyka bez nośnika?  Powietrze, chmury i strumienie oraz cyfry, taśmy i winyle w walce o pierwosłuch lub zapomnienie AB - In the article the authors try to build a research refl ection by means of a logical description of the result of self and technology – sound carriers/media, up to the extreme form, that is their disappearance, or distance from the listener/user. The authors show the infl uence of media on the organization of musical expression in the fi eld of semiotics, technology and aesthetics.  The starting point of the article is a refl ection on a fragment of the lyrics, which suggests a return of music to the air. The authors reconstruct the evolutionary path of sound carriers and reach the place where the air was the primary carrier. At the same time they analyze the contemporary face of technologically entangled air (as a carrier), which is no longer the air from the pre-industrial era, but rather a symbolic place where one can fi nd wireless communication, the Internet or Bluetooth. The article has a philosophical and technological character and serves primarily to consider the role of carriers in the current media reality in which, on the one hand, retro resentment is revived and, on the other hand, the form of streaming services takes over the market of music distribution. The contemporary listener, producer-consumer and remixer, modifi es his behaviours, rituals and habitus of listening – the perception of sound.  VL - 2019 IS - Numer 1 (39) PY - 2019 SN - 1895-975X C1 - 2084-3860 SP - 51 EP - 67 DO - 10.4467/20843860PK.19.004.10899 UR - https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/przeglad-kulturoznawczy/artykul/muzyka-bez-nosnika-powietrze-chmury-i-strumienie-oraz-cyfry-tasmy-i-winyle-w-walce-o-pierwosluch-lub-zapomnienie KW - music KW - streaming KW - vinyl KW - media KW - semiotics of popular music KW - air KW - wireless
