| Publisher Description: The use of the electronic medium to compose music entails a variety of cognitive idiosyncrasies for both the artist and the listener. The studio becomes a musical instrument that allows the composer to imagine through the endless possibilities of sound. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the cognitive processes involved in the experience of electronic music. Structured around a cognitive investigation of electronic music on both practical and conceptual levels, this book addresses the following questions: How do we experience electronic music? How does electronic music operate on perceptual, cognitive, and affective levels? What are the common concepts activated in the listener's mind when listening to electronic music? Why and how are these concepts activated? It argues that our experience of electronic music is guided by a cognitive continuum rooted in our everyday experiences. |
