Abstract
Within audiovisual language sound contributes effectively to the process of reality simulation thanks to a peculiar textual logic, far from realistic conventions. Through a semiotic research enriched by philosophical contributions, here has been dealt the specific phenomenic statute of the relationship between sound and his source, where emerges a relevant indexical component. The discussion goes on with a survey conducted acknowledging contributions arising from psychology, on the ways in which sound perception provides an image of the world through categorical processes (identification and lexicalization, through sounds and sound forms), investigating specifically the notion of sound object. The conclusion of the article leads to a broader argument about the relationship between visual and sound and to the possibility of a sound figurativity and therefore of a sound semiotics of culture.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
