I think that problem with sound arts is its lack of accessibility and understanding of what it actually is. I think that we are lacking a general definition here as such, and sound art is being gradually more and more defined, which in this case makes it even freer and open to all sorts of experiments (which for some may not make the understanding of it any easier). But, is it a problem that really matters? Does it bother anyone else but the ones involved? On one hand, there is a number of artists in the mainstream media that produce something more than just popular music. Bjork for instance, combines elements of folk, techno and all other possible traditional genres of music, with something that is not that easily explained but rather felt inside. Blackheine’s performances oscillate between an immersive theatre/ spoken word/ hip hop and noise show. On the other, sound art exhibitions can often be confusing and hard to grasp for most apart from the minority of truly passionate sound connoisseurs.

Why sound art should be more accessible?
