LEONARDO MUSIC JOURNAL CALL FOR PAPERS
VOLUME 22: ACOUSTICS
Immersed as we are in electronically mediated sound, at the end of

reaches us through acoustic pressure. The sheer physicality of sound,  
and its quirky interaction with our sense of hearing, has driven many  
a composer and sound artist to go back to the "year zero" in music--- 
before the codification of melody, rhythm and harmony---and explore  
fundamental aspects of the physics and perception of sound. Find out
