Volume 4, Issue 1 (2022) Foundations (I)

Editorial Notes 4 (1)

Our call for papers and requests for this “Foundations” (I) issue was met with a wide range of submissions necessitating at least two volumes. In this issue, we highlight the empirical work of Dr. Daniela Boero on the question of evolutionary preferences to naturally occurring sounds, their incorporation into musical scores, and effects on emotions. The other two works focus on basic interpretations of the “foundations” of food and our relationship to eating in various cultural settings – a look at the ontology of eating and nourishment. We look forward to additional submissions (empirical and theoretical works, essays) for our next volume and installment of “foundations” for our late summer/early fall issue. We are grateful to all who contributed.
