Currently, an increasing number of art films showcase innovative explorations of haptic auditory, bringing about fantastic voyages of perception. The major purpose of this essay is to elaborate on the audio practice and aural turn in haptic cinema, in order to comprehend the significance of sound culture. The sub-objective of the case study is to compare the different audio-visiogenic effects and manifold audio-visual concomitance based on the textual analysis of Drive My Car, Memoria, and blind theme films. I intend to apply the soundscape and audio-vision theories and investigate the haptic cinema pathway. At this stage in this research, the aesthetic qualities and cultural connotations of haptic auditory will be examined through three dimensions: perception, narrative, and metaphor. According to the certain functions of sound, the framework is divided into the following main parts. First, I will start with the subjectivity and materiality of sound to illustrate how films achieve haptic auditory expression; Next, I will demonstrate the way sounds are exerted as narrative motives in these cases, focusing on the issue of the sound source; Finally, I will analyse sound in the metaphoric sense, showing the two sample moviesĄŻ similar routes from rupture to recovery. %K Film Sound %K Haptic Film %K Soundscape %K < %K i> %K Drive My Car %K Memoria< %K /i> %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=122796
