- Abstract
"Mapping the Rockumentary: Images of Sound and Fury," edited by Gunnar Iversen and Scott MacKenzie, is a comprehensive exploration of the rockumentary genre. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the historical context, political culture, and close readings of various popular music documentaries. The term "rockumentary" is used broadly to encompass documentaries about different popular music forms. The editors argue that the emergence of the rockumentary in the late 1950s was influenced by technological advancements and the growing presence of youth cultures. The book also examines the aesthetics, politics, and counter-cultures depicted in rockumentaries, as well as the future of the genre. Overall, "Mapping the Rockumentary" offers valuable insights into the intersection of music and film.
