Ulrich Eller / Christoph Metzger Vol. 03 Abstract Music sound, art, media & architecture

Today, many processes of the individual artistic genres merge intermedial forms with sound, technical media, and space-defining measures. What was developed around 1900 and has been developing for many decades challenges a description of comparable processes. Whereas conventional artistic practice with subdomains has become established, this successfully evades any systematic description. Findings from recent research flow from the fields of the neurosciences, philosophy, and gestalt theory into the classical disciplines of art history, media studies, and musicology to determine the role of cognitive faculties within reception, aesthetics, and criticism. The contributions in this publication are derived from a symposium held at the Braunschweig University of Art in December 2016. The goal of the symposium was an artistic and theoretical stocktaking of a contemporary concept of abstraction, as this is used in various disciplines of the arts, in order to assess the role of musical terminology, which we accept as a constant when describing dynamic processes.
