review: Editorial Reviews Review Breathing, wandering, wondering. Toop's writings make sound breathe, amorphous, pulse with futurity. ― Sukhdev Sandhu , THE WIRE Review David Toop is a consummate collector of sounds. In Inflamed Invisible he uncovers compositions in the most unlikely corners of the creative arts, hearing sound in the works from art world luminaries such as Francis Alÿs, Gilbert & George and Picasso, through to more expected stalwarts Christina Kubisch, Alivin Lucier and Akio Suzuki. This wide-ranging collection of essays explores new ways of thinking about music and its performance that has been part of Toop's practice since the 1970s and has led him to become one of the most sought after essayists on sound. ― Caleb Kelly , UNSW Art & Design About the Author David Toop is a musician, writer, and Professor of Audio Culture and Improvisation at the London College of Communication, University of the Arts London. He is the author of Ocean of Sound , Sinister Resonance , Into the Maelstrom , and other books. Read more
