Sonic Entanglement: Multimodal Listening in Sound-Based Music - Paperback
This high quality paperback edition (285 pages) is printed on 80gsm paper and in full colour.
Sonic Entanglement: Multimodal Listening in Sound-Based Music is a book 285-page book that offers composers and sonic artists a powerful set of integrated concepts for discussing and creating sound-based music. The innovative approach departs from previous stepwise, sequential ways of conceptualising the listening process and encourages creative individuals to think multimodally in their artmaking practices. Based on a collection of multisensory modes of listening, the model serves to simplify and unite numerous extant theories from the domains of electroacoustic music studies, acoustic ecology, psychology, and neuroscience. Eight interwoven modes of listening (modes of auditory attention) are identified, representing the: expressive, formal, referential, visual, gestural, environmental, spatial, and structural qualities of sound. New insights are offered through the concept of entanglement – the way in which all modes are simultaneously activated during the ordinary listening process, managed by different areas within the brain, and developed through crosstalk between layers of mental activity.
