Soundscapes, the Polynesian imaginary and the compositional process of Gilberto Mendes -In the work of Gilberto Mendes (1922Mendes ( -2016 there is an incessant practice of interfaces with the languages of cinema, literature, theater, advertising , among others. Polynesia, in its 1930s Hollywood representation is a frequent subject. This scene is constructed, from elements presented in the musical code, coming from Viennese aesthetics.
