Abstract(s)

This article posits the creative exploration of the interconnections between image and sound, as well as the intricate interplay between aesthetics and poetics within the contemporary landscape of new digital artistic formats. To facilitate this exploration, it analyses the nuanced roles attributed to visual and sonic elements and their cognitive effect as attention grabbing mechanisms, in order to discern their mutual interferences and the consequential amplification of their artistic resonance. Moreover, it extends its purview beyond the visual and auditory domains, contemplating the ramifications for the broader spectrum of human senses. Through this analysis of aesthetic dimensions, including sensory experiences that transcend the Aristotelian realms of perception, it seeks to unravel the cognitive and communicational implications inherent in the synergistic employment of these media and the transformative potential encapsulated within the convergence of digital formats, unearthing the profound sensory, cognitive, and communicational impacts that resonate within the realms of art and human perception.
