“Some may call it sound design, sound sculpture or sound art, but it’s actually music. Bypassing the visual sense, they send their messages and ideas straight to the brain with their aesthetic treatment of sound – and that is surely what music is. What is interesting to observe, though, is that in a world increasingly dominated by the visual, with adverts, text messages and multi-channel TV, sound and music is becoming an alternative and more powerful force, finding a way into our emotional lives and functioning in a way that art does.”
