Resumo(s)

This work project presents Retratos Sonoros – Memória Sonográfica de um Ser Humano and its research. The project is developed through questions that emerged from the obstacles to the practical implementation of the artistic piece. During this process, the obstacles found are related to the preconceptions associated to "visual images" that, in the western world, dominate the perception of everything around us, thus limiting the action of our senses in the apprehension of reality, creative thinking and, consequently, artistic production. Pursuing a kind of portrait able to represent what we retain in our memory about the existence of someone we know, I started trying out and researching diverse artistic media, attending to the questions: how to combine the different existing perspectives of the same person, in a single representation?; which portrait form is able to include the constant movement and transformation of a certain human being? The representation of someone, existing in our memory, it is also in constant mutation; therefore, the photographic portraits being static supports, are always far from corresponding to our perception of the person represented. Étienne Marey's study on the analysis of movement (human and animal) and the method of capturing it, as well as Muybridge's photographic experiments to record the phases of that movement, were a starting point in this investigation, and in and in the reflection on the following questions: how to create a portrait corresponding to the concept we have of a Human Being, making visible all the existing perspectives on the same being and the mutations that constantly occur over time? How to represent such a complex object? Considering the human body as the space of identification of a person, I have chosen the "sound" as the medium capable of representing it in a portrait, thus creating the concept of sound portrait. Considering the body as a complex place to explore, analyze and define, a landscape where the human life belongs, I borrowed the concepts sound object from Pierre Schaeffer, and Soundscape Composition from Murray Schafer and Barry Truax. Then, regarding the organization and classification of the sounds that characterize the acoustic environment of this human space-body, for the creation of the three pieces – Interior, Biofonia Emergente and Antropofonia Social – I relied mainly on the experiences and theories of Bernie Krause. These three sound pieces composse Retratos Sonoros – Memória Sonográfica de um Ser Humano.
