Description
»Sonification as material (in the domain of the immaterial)«
The talk discusses music composition based on sonification as a speculative vantage point in the field of arts and science. Much more than the sonified ‘Thing-in-itself’ I’m interested in epistemic aspects occurring in the underlying transfer. The semiotic dichotomy of re-presentation appears as a useful origin for artistic research: How can composers bypass conventions in music while addressing non-musical subjects? How can we compose sonic experience through dealing with sonification? What is the scientific use for non-linguistic information? The utilization of various types of sonification also discloses the relations of intuition and formal processes as it enforces counter-intuitive and unconventional compositional directions.
