This article is an introduction to the work of electronic sound artist Scanner, which explores the place of memory, the cityscape and the relationship between the public and the private within contemporary sound art. Beginning with a historical look at his CD releases a decade ago, the article explores his move from his cellular phone works to his more collaborative digital projects in recent times. With descriptions of several significant performance works, public art commissions and film soundtrack work, the piece explores the resonances and meanings with the ever-changing digital landscape of a contemporary sound artist.

This collection of essays explores the development of electronic sound recording in Japanese cinema, radio, and popular music to illuminate the interrelationship of aesthetics, technology, and cultural modernity in prewar Japan. Putting the cinema at the center of a ‘culture of the sound image’, it restores complexity to a media transition that is often described simply as slow and reluctant. In that vibrant sound culture, the talkie was introduced on the radio before it could be heard in the cinema, and pop music adaptations substituted for musicals even as cinema musicians and live narrators resisted the introduction of recorded sound. Taken together, the essays show that the development of sound technology shaped the economic structure of the film industry and its labour practices, the intermedial relation between cinema, radio, and popular music, as well as the architecture of cinemas and the visual style of individual Japanese films and filmmakers.

This article discusses the author’s visual music compositional practice in the context of similar work in this field. It specifically examines three pieces created between 2015 and 2017 that fused digital animation techniques with electronic sound. This approach contrasted with the author’s earlier compositions, which featured electroacoustic music and video concrète.

In the present work the effect of the use of synthetic sound during incubation in chicken of the Hampshire breed was studied. For the stimulation, an electronic sound generator with amplitude of power 1250 mV and time interval of 134 ms, 176 ms, 210 ms and 380 ms was used. The study was carried out in three experiments. In the 1 st experiment we tried to determine the influence of sound stimulation on the hatching of chickens from egg set of the variant of weight. In the 2 nd experiment we tried to determine the influence of the variant of the beginning of sound stimulation on chicken hatching. In the 3 rd experiment we tried to determine the influence of sound stimulation with constant amplitude of power and the variant of the time interval on chicken hatching. The most suitable eggs to be used for the stimulation with synthetic sound are the ones with the weight of 58.0-60.0g. In this weight category, the chickens hatched earliest of all the groups and there was no decrease in hatchability either. In order to achieve an earlier beginning of beak clapping, a faster whole group beak clapping time, and a shorter hatching time of chickens, sound stimulation should begin at the 433 rd hour of hatching. At the constant amplitude of power of the stimulating sound, the earliest hatching was observed when the time interval was 176 ms. Less suitable for stimulation are the time intervals 134 ms and 380 ms.

Voice and singing are fundamental to music. Scales and content reflect our personal culture. Something beautiful and inspiring to one person may be a boring cacophony to another. Viewing musical evolution from the perspective of culture is therefore varied and individual. Input from science is generally less obvious, except for changes generated from acoustics of buildings, broadcasting, and electronic sound equipment. Medical studies reveal how we form sounds and tone quality, and modern electronic signal processing shows the complexity of the harmonic content of singing. The changes between sweetness, harshness, carrying power, and so on, all depend on not just volume, but the fundamental note and its harmonics, plus all the other frequencies generated in our vocalization. One fundamental may have 50 or more other frequencies. This signal processing tool is invaluable for understanding voice production.
