From Program Music to Sonification: Representation and the Evolution of Music and Language
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
Research into the origins of music and language can shed new
light on musical representation, including program music and
more recent incarnations such as data sonification. Although
sonification and program music have ...
Empirically Informed Sound Synthesis Application for Enhancing the Perception of Expressive Robotic Movement
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
Since people often communicate internal states and intentions
through movement, robots can better interact with humans if they
too can modify their movements to communicate changing state.
These movements, which may be ...
Computational Designing for Auditory Environments
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
This paper is a call for sonification designers to adapt their
representational practices from that of designing objects for
auditory engagement to the construction of systems of
formally described relationships that ...
Spindex and Spearcons in Mandarin: Auditory Menu Enhancements Successful in a Tonal Language
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
Auditory displays have been used extensively to enhance
visual menus across diverse settings for various reasons.
While standard auditory displays can be effective and help
users across these settings, standard auditory ...
madBPM: Musical and Auditory Display for Biological Predictive Modeling
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
The modeling of biological data can be carried out using structured
sound and musical process in conjunction with integrated
visualizations. With a future goal of improving the speed and accuracy
of techniques currently ...
Reflections on the Representation of Women in the International Conferences on Auditory Displays (ICAD)
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
This paper investigates the representation of women researchers
and artists in the conferences of the International Community for
Auditory Display (ICAD). In the absence of an organized membership
mechanism and / or ...
Illustrating Trends in Nitrogen Oxides Across the United States Using Sonification
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
Leveraging the human auditory system, sonification can be used as
an educational tool for non-experts to engage with data in a different
mode than visualization. Without oversimplifying the data, this
project presents ...
Navigation in an Audio-Only First Person Adventure Game
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
Navigation in audio-only first person adventure games is challenging
since the user has to rely exclusively on his or her sense of
hearing to localize game objects and navigate in the virtual world.
In this paper we ...
An Immersive Virtual Environment for Congruent Audio-Visual Spatialized Data Sonifications
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
The use of spatialization techniques in data sonification provides
system designers with an additional tool for conveying information
to users. Oftentimes, spatialized data sets are meant to be
experienced by a single ...
Spectral Parameter Encoding: Towards a Framework for Functional-Aesthetic Sonification
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-06)
Auditory-display research has had a largely unsolved challenge of balancing functional and aesthetic considerations. While functional designs tend to reduce musical expressivity for the fidelity of data, aesthetic or musical ...
