High Static, Dead Lines is one of the most imaginative books to contend with sound in recent memory. -4columns Gallerneaux reminds us that it's ok to be irrational when confronted with new technologies. She doesn't seem to pass any judgement whatsoever on the appeal that the supernatural might have on perfectly balanced minds. We might look with amusement at the historical examples of human gullibility described in the book but I doubt we are much wiser today. -We Make Money Not Art An enthralling look at how sound waves have contributed to what we think of as paranormal culture. -Chicago Review of Books A remarkable book. -Hyperallergic
