Abstract: | Violence extends the archetypal horror stinger into a prolonged musique concrète. There are abrupt bursts and dropouts, akin to intrusive memories associated with Post-Traumatic-Stress-Disorder. A throbbing piano underlay transforms deep minor stabs to a delicate major resolution, and short extracts of cello are digitally multiplied as supra-expressive voices. One of five densely detailed soundscapes designed to elicit violent, phobic, body, and social anxiety as well as sensory irritation. The sounds should be used in Exposure Therapy, a branch of psychiatry that encourages the user to confront their fears to ultimately overcome them, through habituation and catharsis. Each sound has been painstakingly plotted across an ambisonic array in the Glasgow School of Art's Digital Design Studio. | ||||
