Abstract

The present study is intended to show the relations that music and sound provide to two different audio-visual fragments, yet following a similar audiovisual narrative. The first scene belongs to the chapter “Be right Back”, from the British TV show Black Mirror, written by Charlie Brooker, while the second is taken from the movie Her, the American director Spike Jonze. Both media show scenes where different artificial intelligence devices are initiated. Through spectral analysis, we deepen on how sound and music combined contribute to the cultural imaginary in establishing relations in sci-fi media where artificial intelligence is the common topic.
