Audiovisuology

En savoir plus sur le livre

A companion volume to 2009's See This Sound, this all-embracing compendium brings together texts on the various art forms that have combined sound and image. The full spectrum of audiovisual art and phenomena is addressed in 35 dictionary entries, and in-depth essays treat overarching aesthetic issues, while individual works--including projects by John Cage and Chicks on Speed--are represented in audiovisual documentation and scientific comment. The list of definitions and terms elucidated by various prominent authors includes gesamtkunstwerk, music theatre, animation film, light shows, music videos, sound art, expanded cinema, text-image analogies, synchronization, electronic transformation and software.
