음악의 이미지성과 몽타주 -아도르노의 청각적 중화에 관하여- = Image-Character of Music and Montage -On Adorno's acoustic neutralization-

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Focusing on “Radio Physiognomics”, this paper discusses Adorno’s notion of ‘acoustic neutralization’ and the ways in which it destroys the reality of music. The noise of the recording technology of the 1940s, when Adorno was writing, ‘neutralizes’ the richness of timbre and vividness of live music, giving music an image-character. This image-character results in the loss of the reality that distinguishes music from other artistic genres, and Adorno sees media such as radio or film as deceiving us into believing that the reality that has been lost is still intact. Given that today’s recording technology has greatly reduced noise, is Adorno’s argument still relevant? Does Adorno take a negative stance toward the technologies and media involved in music recording? This paper will examine today's digital recording technologies and argue that while noise has been reduced on a cognitive level, acoustic neutralization is still an ongoing problem. It also argues that simply interpreting Adorno's view of recording technology as negative is superficial and discusses the possibility of montage in his art theory. Montage denounces acoustic neutralization in music, but it is also a way to use it as a breakthrough against deception.
