Since its first edition in 1998, this book has become a reference text translated into multiple languages. In this newly revised and updated edition, Michel Chion offers up a situational analysis dealing all at once with acoustics, music, psychology of listening, and an assessment text. Expanding upon Pierre Schaeffer's work that allowed us to think about and describe sounds as we would objects, Chion presents the essentials of a new discipline, acousmatic listening -- listening without visual access to a sound's cause -- where sound is no longer simply the symbol of a lost harmony or a black continent of perception, but a cultural object to construct via listening techniques. Rich in openings, reflections and original concepts, this wide-ranging essay aims to highlight the complexity of sonorous objects and their mutations through technological evolution. It invites us to observe carefully the realm of the sonorous in our everyday life, as well as in philosophy, literature, music and film.
