Paperback. Condición: New. Now two decades old, podcasting is an exuberant medium where new voices can be found every day. As a powerful communications tool that is largely unregulated and unusually accessible, this influential medium is attracting scholarly scrutiny across a range of fields, from media and communications to history, criminology, and gender studies. Hailed for intimacy and authenticity in an age of mistrust and disinformation, podcasts have developed fresh models for storytelling, entertainment, and the casual imparting of knowledge. Podcast hosts have forged strong parasocial relationships that attract advertisers, brands, and major platforms, but can also be leveraged for community, niche, and public-interest purposes.In The Power of Podcasting, award-winning narrative podcast producer and leading international audio scholar Siobhán McHugh dissects the aesthetics and appeal of podcasts and reveals the remarkable power of the audio medium to build empathy and connection via voice and sound. Drawing on internationally acclaimed podcasts she helped produce (The Greatest Menace, The Last Voyage of the Pong Su, Phoebe's Fall), she blends practical insights into making complex narrative podcasts and chatcasts or conversational shows with critical analysis of the art and history of audio storytelling. She also surveys the emerging canon of podcast formats. Grounded in concepts from the affective power of voice to the choreography of sound and packed with case studies and insider tips from McHugh's decades of experience, this richly storied book immerses readers in the enthralling possibilities of the world of sound.…

Paperback. The construction of the Snowy Mountains HydroElectric Scheme between 1949 and 1974 still ranks as one of the world's greatest engineering feats. For Australia, it marked a passage from the Old World to the New and became a monument to multiculturalism along the way. With over three hundred photographs and based on interviews with hundreds of those who were part of the Scheme, The Snowy is the definitive account of this unique project which was, in the words of Professor Manning Clark, "an inspiration to all who dream dreams about Australia".Two thirds of the Scheme's one hundred thousand workers were immigrants, newly arrived from more than forty countries in warweary Europe. The Snowy was to provide them with an opportunity to rebuild shattered lives and to try to forget the devastation and animosities of war. Mutual suspicions between New and Old Australians gradually gave way to cautious acceptance, and the disparate workforce became a skilled and united team that set would records in hardrock drilling and earthmoving in an environment of extraordinary racial and industrial harmony. The mateship was not without cost - this work was often dangerous, and the accidents that killed over one hundred men are investigated here in detail for the first time.Winner of the NSW State Literary Award for Nonfiction, The Snowy: The People Behind The Power is a compelling portrayal of an epic project, a timeless story of a nation on the move.
