“An exemplary experiment in compositional thinking and writing, Atmospheric Noise buzzes with conceptual and methodological inventiveness. Through the style in which it deftly traces the uneven emergence and refraction of urban noise across archives, concepts, bodies, regulations, and experience, Marina Peterson's book brilliantly performs its own argument about the importance of an ethos of informed listening. Atmospheric Noise should be on the bookshelf of anyone interested in understanding and writing about the atmospheric conditions of worlds.” — Derek P. McCormack, author of Atmospheric Things: On the Allure of Elemental Envelopment
