A lesson in intermediality for our times

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The Music of Dada provides a historical analysis of music at Dada events, and asks why accounts of Dada have so consistently ignored music's vital presence, explaining how music has related to the other arts ever since the days of Dada. The music of Dada is the key to understanding intermediality in our time.
