The study of soundscape is a part of the study of auditory culture.Soundscape includes not only the material sound itself,but also the objects related to sound-people and the surrounding environment of sound production.In the era of electronic data "picture reading",human body senses are dominated by vision,and hearing and other related body senses are often ignored.Wang Jiawei constructs a delicate modern sound world in his films.The sound scene of modern urban citizens,locomotive and audio has been presented.The intersection of different sound scene cultures of the East and the west,and the sound image of the inner mood of urban men and women constitute the sound scene connotation of Wang Jiawei's films.The movie sound scene presents certain characteristics,and the director arranges the movie sound scene to be stylized.The physical soundscape brings the personal body perception into the period to obtain the reality of the presence.Immersive soundscape creates a real life atmosphere and presents the daily life of modern city.The soundscape constructs a holistic image of Hong Kong City through brain imagination processing.The freehand style sound scene expresses the inner psychology of the characters,renders the emotion and creates the environment atmosphere,and embodies the emotional memories of the historical era.At the same time,soundscape has a certain spatial attribute.Soundscape undertakes to record the historical process of the city,and film hybridized soundscape constructs regional cultural symbols.The colonial history of East Asia,the confluence of eastern and Western cultures,and the unique sound and cultural reality of Hong Kong are the external environmental forces for the formation of Wong Kar Wai's movie soundscape.Soundscape has also expanded its film expression space,built an imaginary space scene independent of the screen,made up for the defect of single visual narrative of the film,and constructed the inherent poetic quality and aesthetic texture of Wong Kar Wai's film.Macroscopically,the body is occupied and governed by "seeing" under the visual culture of image reproduction technology,and hearing constructs an equal and open communication space,which enables people to perceive and communicate the surrounding world with equal attitude,liberates the body perception suppressed by vision,so as to coordinate and develop the body sensory system in an all-round way.The relatively independent soundscape of Wong Kar Wai's films is the voice representation of urban modernity and the embodiment of cultural hybridity.At the same time,the physical soundscape also reveals the real sound world covered by the pictures,evokes the human's auditory perception suppressed by the vision,and shows the cultural hybridity and global vision in the movie soundscape art.
