- Description
- The 20th century philosopher Paul Ricoeur said: “conflict is a function of man’s most primordial constitution”. (1986, 132) This conflict – between one’s self and one’s others, between character and personality, between feelings and thinking makes us restless and in our restlessness we are driven to create a history for ourselves. The topic of this paper is the validity of soundscapes that draw on history and whose purpose is to project a specific time and place – a temporality. This is a rich topic, which can be broken down into a number of key areas. For the purposes of this paper I will look at the following key areas: Narrative, Phenomenology, History and Memory and Representation through technology.
