SonorAção - ISVI: Instalação Sonora Visual Interativa

Abstract

SonorAção ISVI is a hybrid artistic production in between Music and Visual Arts, implemented as an Interactive Sound and Visual Installation (ISVI3), developed in this master\'s research, with the following objectives: to introduce other possibilities of sound production and its relations with other languages and technologies by exploring ways of interaction and computer processing in real time; to develop and research other means of presentation and audio-visual exploration, which are not present in the composition of traditional music; an encounter between the expressive possibilities of digitized sound, its perception and acoustic-visual relation in time/space creating a synesthetic, multisensory environment which enables the public, now as ―users‖ and not just ―visitors‖, to establish their own, individual, personal interpretations, promoting active participation. The installation carried out in this research can be conceptualized as an artistic production in the scope of Sound Art. This way, it was made a brief contextualization on the repertoire of the Sound Art and on the cultural manifestations of the modern period to the post-human; the survey and research of some Sound Installations that influenced the design and set-up of SonorAção ISVI. The second stage involved the experimentation design and set-up of SonorAção ISVI; and also an analysis about the similarities and differences between the elements that constituted the artistic production carried out in this research and the elements and features that are present in works in the field of Sound Art, including an approach the behavior of the users in SonorAção ISVI s environment through the analysis of photographic records, videos and observation carried out on site during the interaction of users in the installation environment. Finally, we present the results, concepts and Sound Art settings related to the installation on this research; and sound as a key element of creation. This sound exploration that does not follow a specific time line, but is oriented by other stimuli, such as the physical space where it is presented; the interactive space offered to users to be experienced and discovered through their movements; the reconfiguration of spatial and sound presentation; the users behavior in the installation environment; the aesthetic and kinesthetic character (multisensory); a spatial sound exploration that can be: social, conceptual, psychological, representational and acoustic.
