    • On the Use of Sound for Representing Geometrical Information of Virtual Objects 

      Shelley, Simon; Alonso, Miguel; Hermes, Dik; Kohlrausch, Armin (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      This study is concerned with the use of sound in a multimodal interface that is currently being developed as an aid for product design. By using this interface, the designer is able to physically interact with a virtual ...

    • Pairing Colored Socks and Following a Red Serpentine With Sounds of Musical Instruments 

      Bologna, Guido; Deville, Benoit; Pun, Thierry (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      The See ColOr interface transforms a small portion of a colored video image into sound sources represented by spatialized musical instruments. This interface aims at providing visually impaired people with a capability of ...

    • Perceived Self Motion in Virtual Acoustic Space Facilitated by Passive Whole-Body Movement 

      Martens, William L.; Sakamoto, Shuichi; Suzuki, Yoiti (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      When moving sound sources are displayed for a listener in a manner that is consistent with the motion of a listener through an environment populated by stationary sound sources, listeners may perceive that the sources are ...

    • Real-Time Sonification of Physiological Data in an Artistic Performance Context 

      Kessous, Loic; Jacquemin, Christian; Filatriau, Jean-Julien (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      This paper presents an approach for real-time sonification of physiological measurements and its extension to artistic creation. Three sensors where used to measure heart pulse, breathing, and thoracic volume expansion. A ...

    • A review-based conceptual analysis of auditory signs and their design 

      Mustonen, Manne-Sakari (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      The research frames of auditory display have traditionally mainly focused on the evaluation of different applications and devices, whereas the theoretical development has had a minor role. In order to reach the goal of ...

    • Rhetorical Schemes for Audio Communication 

      Polotti, Pietro; Benzi, Carlo (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      The application of rhetorical techniques to the use of non-verbal sound in the interaction between humans and technologies is the core idea of this paper. We present our ideas at a general level and illustrate an exploratory ...

    • Scalable Auditory Data Signatures for Discovery Oriented Browsing in an Expressive Context 

      Gossmann, Joachim; West, Ruth; Hackbarth, Ben (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      To be useful for browsing in vast multidimensional databases, auditory representations need to be able to scale in depth and detail. The concepts of quantitative and qualitative listening are presented and Scalable Auditory ...

    • Sonic Explorations With Earthquake Data 

      Meier, Manuela; Saranti, Anna (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      The composition ``underground sounds'' - an interdisciplinary project including a concert piece as its artistic element - deals with the phenomenon of the constantly moving, therefore resonating earth and is based on data ...

    • Sonification of a Complex Computational Process: Computational Fluid Dynamics 

      Childs, Edward P (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      A live demonstration of the real-time sonification of a complex numerical calculation of a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation is to be performed. The CFD process is implemented in a Java programming environment ...

    • Sonification of Bowing Features for String Instrument Training 

      Larkin, Oliver; Koerselman, Thijs; Ong, Bee; Ng, Kia (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      This paper presents work on an auditory display for use in string instrument training, based on 3D motion analysis. We describe several sonifications that are intended to provide both real-time and non real-time feedback ...

    • Sonification of directional and emotional content: Description of design challenges 

      Pirhonen, Antti; Palomaki, Henni (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      In the construction of sound objects into an application, the designer's skills to communicate through sounds is the cornerstone of the activity. In such an expertise, the knowledge about the human way of interpreting ...

    • SONIFYER A Concept, a Software, a Platform 

      Dombois, Florian (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      In this article we would like to focus on two structural questions, that could be useful for improving the general acceptance of sonification research: On the one hand we are argueing for a new generation of sonification ...

    • Sound Design for Navigation in Topophonies 

      Cahen, Roland (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      This paper attempts to develop concepts of multimodal objects made out of the interaction between space and sound though motion. The present paper is mostly descriptive and tries to gather experiences in order to delimit ...

    • Sound Editing on the Sonogram 

      Boggards, Niels (International Community for Auditory Display, 2008-06)
      Sound editing applications commonly use a waveform display to graphically represent a sound signal. This representation not only conveys little information relevant to sound design, it also severely limits the ways in which ...
