Abstract
We make the case in this essay that sound that is imagined is both a perception and as much a sound as that perceived through external stimulation. To argue this, we look at the evidence from auditory science, neuroscience, and philosophy, briefly present some new conceptual thinking on sound that accounts for this view, and then use this to look at what the future might hold in the context of imagining sound and developing technology.
