What’s up in the grass? Recognition of the phenomenon of plant sound sources between sound and meaning

Abstract

In our understanding of the world, we have become accustomed to the fact that plants are speechless. The combination of sound and crop concepts evokes tree noise, dry leaf noise, high grass or breaking branches. Then the world of flora stimulated by the wind generates sounds. However, it turns out that these injuries will have to change because the source of sound can also be the interior of the nature that surrounds us. The last decade of research has revealed not only the reception and production of acoustic signals, but also the response to music as plant properties. The observations also indicate that the test subjects communicate with each other. Audio plant products are the starting point for considering sound analysis based on semicotics for the expanding spectrum of recording possibilities and ways of using sound. Attempts were made to locate custom audio sources in the audio space. Important there are also questions about the function and importance of sound, the relationship between esthetic, communication and cognitive values and the interpretation plane.
