In Rorschach Audio: Art & Illusion for Sound, British sound artist and writer Joe Banks offers a critical account of Spiritualistic and allegedly supernatural Electronic Voice Phenomena (ghost­voice) recordings, tracing the uncanny phenomena back through the histories of art, literature and the little-known audio monitoring work by UK wartime intelligence agencies. Via a series of fascinating and bizarre psychoacoustic illusions Banks argues that ‘the earliest form of sound recording technology was not a machine but was written language’.
