Through case studies of how mid-century American poetry used recording technologies to contest models of time being put forward by dominant media and the State, this book explores how New Left poets mobilized recording as a new form of sonic field research even while they were being subject to tape-based surveillance by the CIA and the FBI.

Prin studii de caz despre modul in care poezia americana de la mijlocul secolului a folosit tehnologiile de inregistrare pentru a contesta modelele de timp propuse de mass-media dominanta si de stat, aceasta carte exploreaza modul in care poetii din Noua Stanga au mobilizat inregistrarea ca o noua forma de cercetare sonora pe teren chiar si in timp ce erau supusa supravegherii pe banda de catre CIA si FBI.
