En s'appuyant sur les apports du « tournant acoustique » ( Acoustic Turn ) et sur les possibilités offertes par les processus de « sonification » des données, l ’ historien n ’ envisage pas seulement de changer son regard sur l ’ archive numérique, mais d’en faire évoluer sa compréhension sensible. Dans le cadre d'un projet de recherche sur le Berkeley Folk Music Festival, il observe une photographie numérique du chanteur et guitariste de blues Mance Lipscomb prise lors d'un concert en juillet 1963 et interroge la nature du regard porté par l'historien sur cette « silhouette numérique ». Kramer analyse les sources sonores numérisées dans leur dimension sociale et culturelle ainsi que dans leur dimension matérielle, les envisageant comme des objets encodés selon un protocole qu’il s’agit de documenter. Logfile.Dans le sillage des travaux de Jonathan Sterne, l ’ historien américain Michael J. Improved behavior of left/right arrow keysĮxtended support for high precision slow mouse movementĬhanged which layer is selected after a Merge Down operation Menus extend to the side when they reach the bottom of the screen (Windows) Made drawing smoother, Gamma and Intensity knobs much more responsive Remembers window size and tool size and intensity Made Escape key not quit but select the cursor instead Logfile.txt always created in the Photosounder folder (Windows) Optional History menu to set history recording optionsįixed freeze when checking for updates (Windows) Waits for synthesis to complete before saving sound to fileĬhanged the windows compiler, more optimisations, larger address spaceĪdded option to only view/edit/hear the current group of layers It also allows for writing elaborate scripts interpreted by Photosounder. History/Scripting function: All actions done in Photosounder are saved to a human-readable history file (history.pha) which when opened redoes every action. * Pitch shifting, pitch interval stretching, sound rotation, time-frequency domain compression * Synthesizing spectrograms created from other spectrographs, such as printed spectrograms of bird calls in books * Creating new sounds from photographs or fractal images * Highly quality and flexibility processing such as denoising * A new take on more classical sound effects such as sound reverb * New effects such as piano chorusification or time-pixelation of sound * Isolating or removing an instrument from a complex sound * Performing operations between different sound files, such as subtracting an instrumental from a song to isolate vocals * Creating instruments graphically and arranging them into a beat * Complex soundscapes using extreme time stretching * Turning a sound upside down (bass sounds become treble and vice versa) The following is a non-exhaustive list of what has been found that can be done using Photosounder. This groundbreaking approach is what allows us to push the boundary of what we thought was possible. Photosounder turns sound processing problems into image processing challenges, and brings the power and flexibility of familiar image processing tools to the creation and transformation of sounds. Photosounder is a cutting edge spectral editing program, offering the best spectrogram editing and synthesis capabilities, making use of unique spectrograph, synthesis and filtering algorithms developed specifically to achieve the best results possible. Ultimately, knowing how sounds look and how images sound, you'll be able to create images that sound like what you want to hear, or like what you couldn't imagine to hear. Sounds, once turned into images, can be powerfully modified to achieve effects and results that couldn't be obtained in any other way, while images of all sorts reveal the infinite kinds of otherworldly sounds they contain. It is unique in that it opens images and sounds indiscriminately, treats and processes them as images, and synthesizes them as sounds. Photosounder is a one-of-a-kind image-sound editing program.
