the combination of two or more media layers into a single concordant texture in which each retains its linear character

Polyphony - independence of parts

Heterophony - relative independence with a single guiding idea (independent ornamentation, time offsets, simultaneous melodic variants, different articulation etc.)

Monophony - attempt of “fusion” into a single thread

INTERMEDIA COUNTERPOINT

Synchresis - (derived from synchronism and synthesis)

“the spontaneous and irresistible mental fusion, completely free of any logic, that happens between a sound and a visuals when these occur at exactly the same time.”

Michel Chion, Audio-Vision: Sound on the Screen, 1994

“The purpose of art is to impart the sensation of things as they are perceived and not as they are known. The technique of art is to make objects ‘unfamiliar,’ to make forms difficult, to increase the difficulty and length of perception because the process of perception is an aesthetic end in itself and must be prolonged. “

“In studying poetic speech (...) we find material obviously created to remove the automatism of perception; the author’s purpose is to create the vision which results from that deautomatized perception. A work is created ‘artistically’ so that its perception is impeded and the greatest possible effect is produced through the slowness of the perception.“

Victor Shklovskij “Art as Device” (1917)
