Conclusions: about sound installations

The above issues point out that Sound installation is a genre in the music domain because it can be treated as a traditional composition in the sense that most of its relevant issues are closely related to musical structure. The idea of generative grammars is very dependent on time and space and of course its components such as reverberation and Doppler pitch are a very strong issue in contemporary composition. Whether listeners perceive this sort of pieces as music or art is another issue left to musicologists and art critics. A composer should not feel interfering in the art domain because as in this case sound is not treated as an object but rather as an entity with pitch and rhythm. Perhaps the difference is the way these musical structures are projected or diffused in contrast with the way a a recital or concert composition is conceived. Modern HI-FI and computer technologies provide means for this sort of compositions with one particular advantage- interaction with a composition is note one to many anymore but it can also be a one to one relationship.
