Być jak Łajka – odbiór dźwięku jako allopojetyczna pętla feedbacku
To be like Laika: Sound Perception as an Allopoietic Feedback Loop

Summary/Abstract: The article recounts the history of how the cybernetics perspective has influenced the humanities, indicating that both linguistics and performance have omitted the notion of noise, present in the mathematical model of communication. The situation described as noise is themoment of the recipient’s overstimulation. The author puts forward the thesis that such situations allow one to explain the way sound impacts the receiver. Therefore, the author proposes a methodology that revises the concept of an autopoetic feedback loop that defines the nature of the relationship between the viewer and performer in Erika’s Fischer‑Lichte’s concept, using the notion “allopoeticity”. The aim is to show the recipient’s relationship with the technology of sound reproduction as a situation of attunement and mutual parasitism. This will allow researchers to study performances, in which the sound is a stimulus unnoticeable by the recipient.
