In Sound Unseen: Acousmatic Sound in Theory and Practice (2014), Brian Kane challenges traditional acousmatic theory by repositioning Max Neuhaus’s work as a move beyond mere sound reduction towards an integration with the environment. Kane argues that installations like Times Square use invisible sound to activate the listener's body and the surrounding space, rather than focusing solely on the "sonorous object".
