Description
Inner Sound explores how electronic music and art have enabled new possibilities for creating audio and audio-visual artworks that represent subjective internal conscious states.
The author, Jonathan Weinel, examines the creative influence of altered states of consciousness across various genres, including shamanic art and music, psychedelic rock, and electroacoustic music. He also looks at the role of altered states in film, visual music, VJ performances, interactive video games, and virtual reality applications.
Through his analysis, Weinel uncovers common mechanisms and proposes a conceptual model for Altered States of Consciousness Simulations (ASCSs), describing how sound can be used to simulate various subjective states of consciousness from a first-person perspective in an interactive context.
