The Visual Power of the Loudspeaker: Artistic Projects Regarding the Plastic Dimension of the Loudspeaker as Visual Epicenter Sound-Agent.
Abstract
This article highlights the plastic perspective of technical materials that certain works have established in the field of sound art throughout the twentieth century. The study focuses particularly on the loudspeaker according to the following three aspects: technical, visual and symbolic. To conduct this study, monographs, catalogs, articles and other audiovisual documents were consulted in both analog and digital formats. The conclusion of the analysis has evidenced an order and definition of different methodologies and experiences, as well as the points held in common, that are reflected in artistic practices. The aim of this analysis is not to detail the specifics of the technologies used in the selected works, but to emphasize the poetic perspective and visual reference that they adopt.
