Rick Altman. Sound.

Sound Theory. Sound Practice.

General Introduction: Cinema as Event

- Film can not be defined as a text
- Movie is not only a product but a whole industrie / (can't be separated(?))
- lenghty process of conception-investment-production-distribution-exhibition-reception is described as a 3-D-model
- Cinema is seen as a macro-event and therefore seen with a dozen attributes:

Multiplicity
Three-Dimensionality
Materiality
Heterogeneity
Intersection
Performance
Multi-Discursivity
Instability
Mediation
Choice
Diffusion
Interchange

Altman comments on all of these attributes concerning sound.
