During the time I am writing the essay, again and again to read back in order to make sure I didn’t stray from the point. “without explication” and “greater attentiveness” are key words in the essay, explaining how the soundscape draw great attention on the items or locale.
I always keep myself to talk around the quote with the soundscape. Now I want to say out something I figure out during the writing process, but I don’t know whether they are right.
A list of objects without explication, just like a list of orders without explanation . Those independent words in a list, or the voice, attracting people with no reasons. A list of objects without explication is very simple and pure, nobody forcefully add their mind on those objects. Literature that Ian Bogost says in his book, to some extant, is full of human subjectivity and individual ideology. Back to the list, just like back to the origin. Back to the items or other objects from explications (other people’s ideology).
When we are reading a story or narrative, our mind will follow the story line, even the ideology and Weltanschauung created by author, namely, our mind are controlled by author. We won’t focus on items that included in the story or narrative, story line is more attractive. However, a list of objects without explication has a power that draw greater attentiveness on objects. Actually, I want to say that the power of a list of objects without explication is currently correspond to a ability of human. The ability is the reaction of the world. What is that? This question I think could be a typical reaction of human to this world.
