Audio-anthropology studies sounds situated right between the main sound narration produced by culture and anthropological experiences of a man – his biology, physiology and mechanics. A sound, as a manifestation of behavior – a sound event, becomes part of a particular behavior stream, social activities which reflect a variety of cultural forms centered around different aspects of experiencing reality by a man and his relationship with the surrounding world, expressed through behavior patterns, habits and customs, traditions and rituals, reflected by social norms and standards, related to experiencing corporality (intimacy, sexuality, hygiene, illness, death, etc.), emotions, sensuality, etc. Based on the phenomenological-anthropological approach, the proposed comparative tool intends to move towards semiotics, which enables to read sounds in the cultural code of a particular community. Thus, it becomes an element of cultural communication: not so much a sound as a semantic gesture, interpreting various phenomena existing in a specific culture. Audio-anthropology of sounds opens a whole new field for scientific discourse to cultural studies researchers, allowing to better describe a man and his place in the surrounding reality.   VL - 2017 IS - Numer 1 (31) PY - 2017 SN - 1895-975X C1 - 2084-3860 SP - 106 EP - 125 DO - 10.4467/20843860PK.17.007.6936 UR - https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/przeglad-kulturoznawczy/artykul/audioantropologia-odglosow KW - audiality KW - anthropology KW - comparative KW - culture studies of sounds
