Even though sound is an age-old healing modality there are now new technologies which are using sound for a deeper understanding of molecular reactions, neurological benefits and human emotions. Psychoacousticsâ€”the study of the effect of sound on the human nervous systemâ€”forms the foundation upon which the field of soundwork builds. In this introduction to the theories and applications of modern soundwork, we will explore the components of sound, the physiology of hearing, the psychology of listening, and the natural human responses to vibration and frequency. Topics include psychoacoustics (resonance, entrainment, auditory pattern identification), bioacoustics (effect of human sound on the environment), and current therapeutic sound techniques (Tomatis filtration/gating, binaural frequencies, Cymatics). The creation of application-specific music soundtracks will be given a strong emphasis.
