“Sound art as a practice harnesses, describes,
analyses, performs, and interrogates the
condition of sound and the processes by which
it operates.” - Brandon LaBelle, 2006 Background Noise
“Wherever we are, what we hear is mostly
noise. When we ignore it, it disturbs us. When
we listen to it, we find it fascinating.”
- John Cage, 1961
“When faced with musical conservatism at the
beginning of the last century, the composer Edgard
Varese responded by proposing to broaden the
definition of music to include all organized sound. John
Cage went further and included silence. Now even in
the aftermath of the timid 'forever Mozart decades' in
music, our response surely cannot be to put our heads
in the sand and call what is essentially new music
something else – 'Sound Art'.”
- Max Neuhaus, 2000
“'Sound Art' seems to be a category which can
include anything which has or makes sound and
even, in some cases, things which don't.”
- Max Neuhaus, 2000
“...Sonic Art includes music and electro-acoustic
music... it will cross over into areas which have
been categorised distinctly as Text-Sound and as
'sound effects'...focus will be upon the structure
and structuring of sounds themselves...
encompass the arts of organising sound events
in time.” - Trevor Wishart, 1985 On Sonic Art

space quote
“We are all familiar with the visual effect of painting
the walls of a space with a dark colour. Here the
space seems to close inward ... I would draw a
parallel in working with sound. Experience has
shown that different types of sounds, when
broadcast homogeneously within a space, may
cause that space to appear open and voluminous
or close and intimate.” -- Robin Minard, 2008
