    [NT 15000229]: The so-called linguistic turn in the social sciences has brought a significant body of research on how language, story-telling and narratives in written and verbal form are constitutive of organization. Yet much organisational practice remains embedded in human perception, that is, in a non-verbal, perceptual impression. The visual, audible, tactile,and olfactory capacities of individuals are mobilized and used in all sorts of organizations on a day-to-day basis. This book examines the concept of perception in detail and outlines three specific domains b7 sart, music, and media b7 spertaining to perception in organization. Rather than assuming that art, mobilizing (primarily) visuality, and music,engaging audible perception, are human accomplishments or social resources removed fromorganizational activities, they are in fact integral to a variety of organized practices. Drawing on a number of texts from a variety of social science and humanities disciplines, Perception and Organization suggests that the intersection between perception and organization deserves a proper theoretical analysis and further empirical research.
