Kort sammendrag av avhandlingen:

This dissertation focusses on how the development of new sound technology influences our understanding of what sounds are to be regarded as musical. In our society there has always existed a division between what sounds are considered to be appreciated as part of music and what is considered to be just noise. Historically, traditional instruments have been seen as the main source for such musical sounds. With the introduction of technology that could create sound independently of traditional acoustic methods, artists suddenly had a new possibility to explore sounds beyond the traditional musical framework. What I discuss in this dissertation is how these artistic possibilities manage not only create new sounds, but most importantly to make us reevaluate our cultural expectation of how both music should sound and how it is to be created.
