W. Bailey lay out and explore the mystifying and evanescent musical territory of 'sonic phantoms': auditory illusions within the musical material that convey a 'phantasmatic' presence. Structured around a large body of compositional work developed by Ellison over the past decade, sonic phantoms are revealed and illustrated as they arise through a diverse array of musical sources, materials, techniques, and compositional tools: voices (real and synthetic), field recordings, instrument manipulation, object amplification, improvisation, and recording studio techniques. Somehow inherent in all music--and perhaps in all sound--sonic phantoms lurk and stalk with the promise of mystery\u003cbr\u003e and elevation. We just need to conjure them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarbara Ellison \u003c\/b\u003eis an award-winning composer and artist whose creations have been presented internationally, including her latest 3-hour album, \u003ci\u003eCyber-Opera\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThomas Bey \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eWilliam Bailey \u003c\/b\u003eis a recording artist and author of several books on sonic art, including \u003ci\u003eTo Hear the World with New Eyes: A Cultural History of the Synesthetic and Cross-Sensory Arts\u003c\/i\u003e (2016). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrancisco López \u003c\/b\u003eis internationally recognized as one of the main figures in the realms of sound art and experimental music.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 248\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.53 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 30, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42098610995335,"sku":"9781501391767","price":77.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/e10e4db071decce6be8ea6c059cc8f4a.webp?v=1732365300","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/sonic-phantoms-composition-with-auditory-phantasmatic-presence-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
