Book Synopsis PROMETHEUS R&D SYNESTHESIA IN ART by : Bulat M. Galeyev
Download or read book PROMETHEUS R&D SYNESTHESIA IN ART written by Bulat M. Galeyev and published by Meta Yayınevi. This book was released on 2022-09-07 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prometheus R&D argued and defended the opinion that synesthesia rather than being a mind anomaly is a norm of human psychic perception, imagination, and creativity manifested in non-verbal thinking, realized by either involuntary or by purposeful comparison of different modalities, on the basis of structural, semantic, or emotional similarities. In this context, synesthesia associates with cultural aspects rather than being a biological phenomenon, moreover, Bulat Galeyev persistently stressed that language, monosensory, and bisensory arts, serve as the “testing areas” where synaesthesia is formed and most actively cultivated.
Book Synopsis Synesthesia and the Arts by : Dani Cavallaro
Download or read book Synesthesia and the Arts written by Dani Cavallaro and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the relationship between synesthesia--the experience of a sensation in one perceptual domain triggering a sensation in another perceptual domain--and the arts (including painting, photography, music and literature). Its aim is twofold: to introduce readers as yet unfamiliar with synesthesia to this intriguing phenomenon by focusing on its impact on the creation and reception of art; and to alert readers already conversant with synesthesia in its many manifestations to its potential to encourage fresh ways of approaching art, of understanding the part played by our bodies in its production and receipt and, by extension, of reassessing our position in nature as humans.

Book Synopsis The Sixth Sense of the Avant-Garde by : Irina Sirotkina
Download or read book The Sixth Sense of the Avant-Garde written by Irina Sirotkina and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-20 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The touch and movement senses have a large place in the modern arts. This is widely discussed and celebrated, often enough as if it represents a breakthrough in a primarily visual age. This book turns to history to show just how significant movement and the sense of movement were to pioneers of modernism at the turn of the 20th century. It makes this history vivid through a picture of movement in the lives of an extraordinary generation of Russian artists, writers, theatre people and dancers bridging the last years of the tsars and the Revolution. Readers will gain a new perspective on the relation between art and life in the period 1890-1920 in great innovators like the poets Mayakovsky and Andrei Bely, the theatre director Meyerhold, the dancer Isadora Duncan and the young men and women in Russia inspired by her lead, and esoteric figures like Gurdjieff. Movement, and the turn to the body as a source of natural knowledge, was at the centre of idealistic creativity and hopes for a new age, for a 'new man', and this was true both for those who looked forward to the technology of the future and those who looked back to the harmony of Ancient Greece. The book weaves history and analysis into a colourful, thoughtful affirmation of movement in the expressive life.
Book Synopsis The Hidden Sense by : Cretien Van Campen
Download or read book The Hidden Sense written by Cretien Van Campen and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2010-02-26 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The uncommon sensory perceptions of synesthesia explored through accounts of synesthetes' experiences, the latest scientific research, and suggestions of synesthesia in visual art, music, and literature. What is does it mean to hear music in colors, to taste voices, to see each letter of the alphabet as a different color? These uncommon sensory experiences are examples of synesthesia, when two or more senses cooperate in perception. Once dismissed as imagination or delusion, metaphor or drug-induced hallucination, the experience of synesthesia has now been documented by scans of synesthetes' brains that show "crosstalk" between areas of the brain that do not normally communicate. In The Hidden Sense, Cretien van Campen explores synesthesia from both artistic and scientific perspectives, looking at accounts of individual experiences, examples of synesthesia in visual art, music, and literature, and recent neurological research. Van Campen reports that some studies define synesthesia as a brain impairment, a short circuit between two different areas. But synesthetes cannot imagine perceiving in any other way; many claim that synesthesia helps them in daily life. Van Campen investigates just what the function of synesthesia might be and what it might tell us about our own sensory perceptions. He examines the experiences of individual synesthetes—from Patrick, who sees music as images and finds the most beautiful ones spring from the music of Prince, to the schoolgirl Sylvia, who is surprised to learn that not everyone sees the alphabet in colors as she does. And he finds suggestions of synesthesia in the work of Scriabin, Van Gogh, Kandinsky, Nabokov, Poe, and Baudelaire. What is synesthesia? It is not, van Campen concludes, an audiovisual performance, a literary technique, an artistic trend, or a metaphor. It is, perhaps, our hidden sense—a way to think visually; a key to our own sensitivity.
Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of Sound and Image in Western Art by : Yael Kaduri
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Sound and Image in Western Art written by Yael Kaduri and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-07-14 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Sound and Image in Western Art examines, under one umbrella, different kinds of analogies, mutual influences, integrations and collaborations of audio and visual in different art forms. The book represents state-of-the-art case studies with key figures of modern thinking constituting a foundation for discussion. It thus emphasizes avant-garde and experimental tendencies, while analyzing them in historical, theoretical, and critical frameworks. The book is organized around three core thematic sections. The first, Sights and Sounds, concentrates on the interaction between the experience of seeing and the experience of hearing. Examples of painting, classic and digital animation, video art, choreography, and music performance are examined in this section. Sound, Space, and Matter explores experimental forms emanating from the expansion of the concepts of music and space to include environmental sounds, vibrating frequencies, silence, language, human habitats, the human body, and more. The reader will find here an analysis of different manifestations of this aesthetic shift in sound art, fine art, contemporary dance, multimedia theatre, and cinema. The last section, Performance, Performativity, and Text, shows how new light shed by modernism and the avant-garde on the performative aspect of music have led it - together with sound, voice, and text - to become active in new ways in postmodern and contemporary art creation. In addition to examples of real-time performing arts such as music theatre, experimental theatre, and dance, it includes case studies that demonstrate performativity in fine art, visual poetry, short film, and cinema. Sitting at the cutting edge of the field of music and visual arts, the book offers a unique, at times controversial view of this rapidly evolving area of study. Artists, curators, students and scholars will find here a panoramic view of cutting-edge discourse in the field, by an international roster of scholars and practitioners.

Book Synopsis Music, Art and Performance from Liszt to Riot Grrrl by : Diane V. Silverthorne
Download or read book Music, Art and Performance from Liszt to Riot Grrrl written by Diane V. Silverthorne and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Opening with an account of print portraiture facilitating Franz Liszt's celebrity status and concluding with Riot Grrrl's noisy politics of feminism and performance, this interdisciplinary anthology charts the relationship between music and the visual arts from late Romanticism and the birth of modernism to 'postmodernism', while crossing from Western art to the Middle East. Focused on music as a central experience of art and life, these essays scrutinize 'the musicalisation of art' focusing on the visual and performing arts and detailing significant instances of intra-art relations between c. 1840 and the present day. Essays reflect on the aesthetic relationships of music to painting, performance and installation, sound-and- silence, time-and-space. The insistent influence of Wagner is considered as well as the work and ideas of Manet, Satie and Cage, Thomas Wilfred, La Monte Young and Eliasson. What distinguishes these studies are the convictions that music is never alone and that a full understanding of the “isms” of the last two hundred years is best achieved when music's influential presence in the visual arts is acknowledged and interrogated.

Book Synopsis The Man Who Tasted Shapes, revised edition by : Richard E. Cytowic
Download or read book The Man Who Tasted Shapes, revised edition written by Richard E. Cytowic and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2003-08-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this medical detective adventure, Cytowic shows how synesthesia, or "joined sensation," illuminates a wide swath of mental life and leads to a new view of what it means to be human. Richard Cytowic's dinner host apologized, "There aren't enough points on the chicken!" He felt flavor also as a physical shape in his hands, and the chicken had come out "too round." This offbeat comment in 1980 launched Cytowic's exploration into the oddity called synesthesia. He is one of the few world authorities on the subject. Sharing a root with anesthesia ("no sensation"), synesthesia means "joined sensation," whereby a voice, for example, is not only heard but also seen, felt, or tasted. The trait is involuntary, hereditary, and fairly common. It stayed a scientific mystery for two centuries until Cytowic's original experiments led to a neurological explanation—and to a new concept of brain organization that accentuates emotion over reason. That chicken dinner two decades ago led Cytowic to explore a deeper reality that, he argues, exists in everyone but is often just below the surface of awareness (which is why finding meaning in our lives can be elusive). In this medical detective adventure, Cytowic shows how synesthesia, far from being a mere curiosity, illuminates a wide swath of mental life and leads to a new view of what is means to be human—a view that turns upside down conventional ideas about reason, emotional knowledge, and self-understanding. This 2003 edition features a new afterword.

Book excerpt: This comprehensive and beautifully illustrated collection of essays conveys a vivid picture of a fascinating and hugely significant period in history, the Fin de Siècle.

The volume also looks at the development of mass media over this period and emerging trends in culture, such as advertising and consumption, film and publishing, as well as the technological and scientific changes that shaped the world at the turn of the nineteenth century, such as the invention of the telephone, new transport systems, eugenics and physics. The Fin-de-Siècle World also considers issues such as selfhood through chapters looking at gender, sexuality, adolescence, race and class, and considers the importance of different religions, both old and new, at the turn of the century. Finally the volume examines significant and emerging trends in art, music and literature alongside movements such as realism and aestheticism. This volume conveys a vivid picture of how politics, religion, popular and artistic culture, social practices and scientific endeavours fitted together in an exciting world of change. It will be invaluable reading for all students and scholars of the Fin-de-Siècle period.
Book Synopsis The Occult Arts of Music by : David Huckvale
Download or read book The Occult Arts of Music written by David Huckvale and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-10-10 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Occult traditions have inspired musical ingenuity for centuries. From the Pythagorean concept of a music of the spheres to the occult subculture of 20th-century pop and rock, music has often attempted to express mystical states of mind, cosmic harmony, the demonic and the divine--nowhere more so, perhaps, than in the music for films such as The Mephisto Waltz, The Devil Rides Out, Star Trek, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Omen and The Exorcist. This survey explores how such film music works and uncovers its origins in Pythagorean and Platonic ideas about the divine order of the universe and its essentially numerical/musical nature. Chapters trace the influence of esoteric Freemasonry on Mozart and Beethoven, the birth of "demonic" music in the 19th century with composers such as Weber, Berlioz and Liszt, Wagner's racial mysticism, Schoenberg's numerical superstition, the impact of synesthesia on art music and film, the effect of theosophical ideas on composers such as Scriabin and Holst, supernatural opera and ballet, fairy music and, finally, popular music in the 1960s and '70s.

It's a celebration of music's role in our lives, revealing its profound impact on both individual and collective levels. The book takes you on a journey through diverse perspectives on music, illustrating how it serves as a spiritual guide, a tool for social change, and a reflection of our inner and outer worlds. Chapters like Echoes of Resistance and The Muse's Touch show how music has fueled revolutions and sparked creativity, while Lullabies Across the Globe and The Dance of Cultures emphasize its role in preserving traditions and connecting us to our roots. Even in the silence, there is a melody; The Symphony of Silence and Cadence of the Cosmos explore the power of pauses and the mystical patterns of music, offering a glimpse into how music and the universe itself resonate together. Whispers of Harmonic Souls is more than a collection of stories—it's a tribute to the transformative power of music. Whether you're a musician, a music lover, or simply someone who's been touched by a song, this book will deepen your appreciation for how music shapes our world. It's a journey through the soul of music and its ability to connect, heal, and inspire, reminding us that, in the grand symphony of life, we are all connected by the harmonies that resonate within us.
