Where is sound? Philosophy meets audio technology

In one of the most unusual videos we've ever recorded at an AV trade show, AV Magazine's Guy Campos speaks to Jeff Hawley about the philosophy of sound. Jeff has audio technology and philosophy expertise: he is marketing director at Allen & Heath USA and American Music & Sound, and a PhD candidate in philosophy at York St John University. 00:00 Intro 00:55 The most surprising finding in Jeff's x-phi survey research 02:17 The four most popular answers to the question "Where is sound?" 05:12 Who did Jeff survey and why? 07:40 Are live sound engineers consistent? 10:05 Why ask live sound engineers and how much weight should we attach to their views? 15:10 Which school of philosophy is Jeff drawn to? 18:40 What is a fifth view you might take about sound? 22:36 Why study philosophy of sound? For audio technology professionals, this may make you think in a new way about sound and the language used in the marketing of audio technology. For philosophy enthusiasts, this is just an introduction and a taster; there's a lot more to be discussed off camera. The title of Jeff's PhD thesis, Philosophy of Sound: Dissolving Pseudo-Problems via Logical Positivist Methods, gives a clear answer as to what kind of philosophy he thinks he is doing. And, yes, Jeff does have things to say about Carnap, and about Quine's rejection of strict verificationism, when arguing that verification methods using technology can play a role in making our language more precise.
