Abstract

This chapter interrogates the way sound symbolises control in two sites in Japan: urban Tokyo and rural Fukushima, comparing the way residents both create and react to sounds in their environment. The Tokyo example focuses on train stations as hubs for social and economic activity; the Fukushima example explores how silence and new sounds (such as the blip of the Geiger counter) have come to define this area after the triple disasters of March 2011.
