Five Dedicated to Ozu

Human action leaves the centre; waves, driftwood, moonlight, frogs, and rain become temporal events that must be watched and heard.

Sound is not an annotation added to images

pp. 34–35

Claim: Sound and image jointly produce space, expectation, and rhythm; vibration, captions, audio description, and sign-language interpretation can also recompose the audiovisual object through distinct modalities.

Extension: Chion's audio-vision shows that sound and image produce a new perceptual object together; Eidsheim returns sound and listening to a vibrational practice formed by medium, space, technology, and bodies.

Tension: The tactile image cannot absorb every sonic problem. Sound, hearing, listening, sign-language interpretation, and caption reading must remain distinct; not hearing does not mean lacking access to the audiovisual object through other modalities.
