The workshop Perception, Listening, Mimesis, and Criticism: Concepts and Theories of Aesthetic Experience deals with different theories of aesthetic experience, artistic perception, and reception. Researchers, composers, and performers discuss how mimesis informs the use of empathetic, physical-spiritual participation, spontaneous sound imitation, and listener orientation in a soundscape for the aesthetic evaluation of audio score compositions. The central question is whether, why, and how the focus on listening in composition, interpretation, and reception creates a specific quality of experience and action that can create lasting change in the performance for all participants.
These workshops are part of the project Sound as Score.
