Introduction to Rhythmanalysis: Psychogeography and the Phenomenology of Acoustic Atmosphere
My article on how sound shapes the experience of living is now out in the July 2015 issue of Chilean sound art magazine AURAL: Geograffias Audibles, a publication of Tsonami.
The piece is available in English with (with added illustrative audio media!) here: http://alycesantoro.com/rhythmanalysis.html
“Everywhere there is interaction between a place, a time, and an expenditure of energy there is rhythm”. [The rhythmanalyst] is capable of listening to a house, a street, a town as one listens to a symphony…” – Henri Lefebvre
