« The distinctions between noise, sound and music is central to my work. I rationalize these distinctions as the perceptual nuances between hearing and listening as modes of auditory reception. »

« Through lo-fi yet seemingly complex assemblages and installations, I attempt to isolate moments where noise is perceived as sound and sound is perceived as music »

Monistic :

Monism  is the philosophical view that a variety of existing things can be explained in terms of a single reality or substance

Definition from Wikipedia ;)

« The notion of ‘time’ in sound is neither time as opposed to space nor is it time plus space.

At the same time thesonic idea of ‘space’ is not opposed to that time nor is it space plus time. »

Salome Voegelin, « Listenin to Noise and Silence : Towards a Philosophy of Sound Art, Bloomsbury Academic, 2010.
