- This is a portfolio-based PhD thesis within the academic framework of Sonic Arts. It illustrates how sound-based artistic practice can be employed to convey fictional narratives within a symbiotic exchange with each other. It consists of a portfolio as the main body of submission and an accompanying commentary elaborating the ideas and thoughts embedded in the works. The portfolio consists of 9 sound-based works, which are enhanced by other various artistic media and deliver stories written by myself: some of these stories were invented in order to foreground the technological concept implemented within each respective work, while in others the technological means was employed based on the scenario of the work. As a collection of works which sit amongst multiple artistic disciplines such as creative writing, theatre-making, filmmaking and performance art, this thesis will prospectively inform sound-based arts practice about the potential of integrating and utilising fictional narratives and concurrently communicate alternative ways to deploy sound to narrative-based disciplines.
