Overview
The book Art and the Senses cites the Italian Futurist artists, Fortunato Depero and Luigi Russolo as designing art machines in 1915 to create a multisensory experience of sound, movement and colour.{{Citation|last1=Bacci |first1=Francesca|last2=Melcher|first2=David |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=61Hj9o3mPBUC&pg=PA287 |title=Art and the Senses |pages=286–7 |publisher=Oxford University Press |year=2011 |isbn=978-0-19-923060-0}} In the 1970s Harry Bertoia created sound sculptures of objects to have a multisensory effect, exploring the relationships between the sound, the initiating event and the material properties of the objects. In an example with overt musical connections, The Oxford Handbook of New Audiovisual Aesthetics cites musician Brian Williams (aka Lustmord) as someone whose practise crosses audiovisual art and mainstream media, where his work is "not traditionally 'musical'" and has "clearly visual aspects".{{Citation|last1=Richardson |first1=John |last2=Gorbman |first2=Claudia |last3=Vernallis |first3=Carol |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Y8JpAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA367 |title=The Oxford Handbook of New Audiovisual Aesthetics |pages=367–8 |publisher=Oxford University Press |year=2013 |isbn=978-0-19-973386-6}}
