Abstract

This mixed-methods study focused on cross-modal change in perception of paintings, by coupling them with related musical pieces. 120 participants were assessed using an online form, distributed via social media. They were asked to choose one of three realistic or abstract paintings, evaluate their perceptual characteristics on five semantic differential rating scales and answer three questions. The participants were then given a choice of three musical pieces (pre-selected to suit each painting) to match their chosen painting. Our findings revealed a significant change in three of the five scales. Moreover, for 93 of the 120 participants, the experience of looking at a painting while listening allowed projection of newly found perception or properties associated with music (dynamism through time, mobility, and the evocation of self-expression) onto the painting. These data suggest that as observers combine stylistically-fitting music with a painting, they find new meaning and value, thereby enhancing their experience.
“听”绘画:跨模态体验对主观感知的协同效应
这个混合方法的研究集中在跨模态变化的感知绘画,通过耦合他们与相关的音乐作品。通过社交媒体分发的在线表格对120名参与者进行了评估。他们被要求从三幅现实主义或抽象绘画中选择一幅,用五种语义差异评级量表评估他们的感知特征,并回答三个问题。然后,参与者可以从三首乐曲中选择一首来与他们所选的画作相匹配。我们的研究结果显示,五个量表中有三个发生了重大变化。此外,对120名参与者中的93人来说,边看边听的体验可以将新发现的感知或与音乐相关的属性(时间的动态性、流动性和自我表达的唤起)投射到绘画上。这些数据表明,当观察者将符合风格的音乐与绘画结合起来时,他们会发现新的意义和价值,从而增强他们的体验。
