ABSTRACT
Chapter 7, “Visual Aurality,” considers how image and sound are intertwined both metaphorically and formally and how they are redefined once both become reconfigurable as data. It considers how images historically have at times been produced based on or inspired by music, which is broadened when abstract sound is accepted as an aesthetic field. The guidelines for this chapter encourage the development of projects in art and media design that are reflective on audiovisuality, once digital conversion of image to sound enables data to emerge as a tertiary creative element.
