Aural Architecture: The Sonorous, the Acoustic and the Auditory
https://orcid.org/http://orcid.org/0000-0002-1461-3516
The act of “listening to architecture” shifts the built reality towards a perceived reality, which is inserted in a temporal structure where sensibilities and corporealities converge. When architecture is affected by sound, a sonorous, an acoustic and an auditory dimension of space emerges. The connection of bodies with the sonic-spatial presence creates a phenomenal map that is accessed through the listening experience and which I call “aural architecture”. Aural architecture is an aesthetic practice that invites us to experience visible and invisible realities through listening. By auditory experience and sensory interpretation, it is possible to build imaginary architectures that emerge from our own creative perception. It is a critical reflection on the hegemony of visual culture and the disciplinary paradigm of architecture, which, regarding its design and production methods, reveals a lack of sensibility by not considering perception as a material for the construction of spatialities. This chapter is a manifesto on aural architecture, which declares the creative action as a subversive act that aims to dematerialize architecture into subjective interpretations. Aural architecture is a parallel dimension of reality that operates from a rhizomatic and transdisciplinary structure where the frontiers between artist and spectator are blurred.
