Listening and tourism studies

A multisensory phenomenology of interrail mobilities

“…We do so in response to suggestions that there is a: "narrowness in our understanding and representation of tourism" (Tribe, 2008, p. 924). Contributing to recent research that has adopted embodied methods as an opportunity to engage with and explore multisensual experiences (Bissell, 2010;Edensor & Holloway, 2008), this approach draws on the first author's own travel experiences as well as interrailers' perspectives to elucidate the rhythmscapes (Edensor & Holloway, 2008;Rantala & Valtonen, 2014) and soundscapes (Duffy, Waitt, GormanMurray, & Gibson, 2011;Waitt & Duffy, 2010) of interrailing.

“…Turning an ethnomusicological lens to the details of programming, repertoire, performance practice, costuming, and movement, I re-centre the artistic elements of the encounter to expand the interpretive position of the general culture analyst. Research has underscored the need to revisit tourism as a performed, embodied, multisensory realm (Connell and Gibson 2008;Gibson 2010;Larsen and Urry 2011;Saldanha 2005;Waitt and Duffy 2010). Tahitian dance presentations offer an optimal vehicle for doing so.…”
