'Gradus ad Parnassum' (1725): Concluding Chapters
... This type of approach to sonic framing is illustrated in one account of the sound design process in which the sound designer was working with the graphic imagery to match the voices depicted. One example is of a [60] First species Note against note counterpoint-matching two voices together-e.g. 1 point in the melody is counterpointed with another point Second species ...
In order to challenge dominant representations and conceptions of artificial intelligence (AI), this article explores how AI is sonically represented in documentaries. Using a corpus of documentaries alongside expert interviews with sound designers, we explore the ways in which music and sound may influence perception about AI. The notion of ‘counterpoint’ in music theory is developed as a concept to capture and explain how the integrated dynamics of human/machines are represented within these sonic framings. The concept of the counterpoint allows us to reflect on how the relations between AI and the human and how they are sonically framed in ways that separate and blend without recourse to reductive or binary futures, which potentially misrepresent AI capabilities and performance. The article identifies and develops four types of counterpoint in what we refer to as AI sonic narratives. This article provides a framework from which AI could be sonically framed responsibly, which is critical when misinformation and hype impede the public understanding of science.
