Sonic Design Explorations Between Art and Science


Free Download Sonic Design: Explorations Between Art and Science (Current Research in Systematic Musicology) by Alexander Refsum Jensenius
English | May 10, 2024 | ISBN: 3031578910 | 353 pages | MOBI | 17 Mb
This open access book offers a historical context and an overview of the field’s current artistic and scientific research. Sonic design includes the construction and performance of acoustic instruments but also recording, editing, mixing, and synthesizing sounds using analog and digital electronic devices. This book explores sonic design from the perspectives of music theory, music perception, embodied cognition, phenomenology, soundscape studies, acoustics, new interfaces for musical expression, sound and music computing, and music information retrieval. The chapters are selected contributions from an international seminar organized to celebrate the achievements of Professor Rolf Inge Godøy at the University of Oslo. As a composer, researcher, teacher, and supervisor, Professor Godøy has been central in developing a holistic approach to sonic design, from theory to practice. This book offers a comprehensive overview of the field’s current state, making it essential reading for students, practitioners, and researchers across a wide range of disciplines.

Phenomenological Investigations of Sonic Environments


Free Download Martin Nitsche, "Phenomenological Investigations of Sonic Environments"
English | ISBN: 3031659201 | 2024 | 175 pages | EPUB, PDF | 457 KB + 4 MB
Phenomenological approaches to sounds, noises, voices, and music traditionally privilege methods that center visual perception. This book aims not only to phenomenologically describe sonic environments, but also to develop an audition-centered phenomenological methodology to enable this task. "Sonic environment" is this book’s term for the acoustic shape of human life-environment, which is multisensory and does not exclude visual, tactile, olfactory, and gustatory sensations connected with sounds or their sources. Sonic environments (in so far as they are lived) are not composed of separate sounds, but created by "sonic phenomena" – i.e., lived (real or imagined) experiences with sounds, noises, voices, and music. Just as phenomenology traditionally privileges the visual over the audio, phenomenology thematically prefers listening to a voice or a music over less articulated sonic experiences (i.e., sounds without an obvious meaning, melody, or rhythm).In this respect, the book not only provides missing phenomenological descriptions of sonic environments, but also redefines phenomenological methodology with respect to acoustic perception.
