Hearing the Moon: Sound as Storytelling in Ordinary Night
Author: Martsamrit Pasupa
Conference Proceedings Article, pp. 68–69

This paper explores sound as a primary narrative device within the audiovisual work Ordinary Night. Using minimal visual imagery and a layered nocturnal soundscape, the study investigates how listening can construct emotional memory, spatial perception, and narrative meaning. The research combines sound design practice, audience interpretation, and theoretical perspectives from audiovisual and sound studies to examine storytelling under visual constraints.
