This workshop investigates the multifaceted nature of sound\, merging philosophical inquiry with empirical research. It questions the ontological status of sounds&mdash\;whether they exist as physical phenomena\, perceptual experiences\, or abstract entities. It also examines if sounds reside at their source\, within the medium they traverse\, or are a product of auditory perception\, and raises the question of how sounds influence our perception of the environment and interact with our other senses\, especially sight. Moreover\, the workshop discusses the unique role of speech in bridging sound with meaning.
