About the project
The Phenomenology of Audial Experience
The interdisciplinary aspect of this project is grounded in the research group Art and Science in Education at REALTEK.
Based on a phenomenological inquiry, the project aims at providing knowledge about sound as experience and attentive listening and their relevance for teaching and learning.
The project has two main research questions:
- With reference to sound as a science topic and listening as a basic skill: which insights are promoted through interdisciplinary cooperation between the fields of physics, music, science education, and philosophy of science?
- With reference to learning and teaching: which practical-pedagogical consequences might come out of aesthetic project work between art, science and, philosophy?
The project consists of a research component, an artistic part (musical composition), and an educational component.
