This paper describes the process of designing historically informed soundscapes to ... -
DreamSound: Deep activation layer sonification
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)Deep learning (DL) in audio signal processing has received much attention in the last four years, and it is still a growing field. Some attempts were made to translate deep networks from image to audio applications, and ... -
Evaluating the spatial sonification of the molecular structures of amino acids using multiple concurrently sounding sources
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)We have designed an interactive form of sonification in which the listener navigates through the molecular structures of amino acids over the network of carbon atoms. We use pitch and density as the two main features for ... -
Feeling Loki's pain: Designing and evaluating a DIY 3D auditory display for geodata sonification
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)Loki's Pain is an immersive 3D audio installation artwork, a sonification of seismic activity. Visitors take the place of Loki, who was punished by the gods and caused earthquakes. We designed an auditory display in the ... -
High-order surrogacy for the audiovisual display of dance
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)The current pandemic (COVID-19) has had considerable impact on many fronts, not least on the physical presence of humans, affecting how we relate to one another and to the natural environment. To investigate these two ... -
Highcharts Sonification Studio: an online, open-source, extensible, and accessible data sonification tool
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)The Highcharts Sonification Studio is the culmination of a multi-year collaboration between Highsoft — the creators of Highcharts — and the Georgia Tech Sonification Lab to develop an extensible, accessible, online spreadsheet ... -
Introduction of a computational modelling approach to auditory display research: Case studies using the QN-MHP framework
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)For more than two decades, a myriad of design and research methods have been proposed in the ICAD community. Neurological methods have been presented since the inception of ICAD, and psychological human-subjects research ... -
Investigating the effect of earcon and speech variables on hybrid auditory alerts at rail crossings
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)Despite rail industry advances in reducing accidents at Highway Rail Grade Crossings (HRGCs), train-vehicle collisions continue to happen. The use of auditory displays has been suggested as a countermeasure to improve ... -
Layers of meaning: The ocean's natural acoustics and the music of its datasets
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)The transdisciplinary National Academies Keck Futures Initiative (NAKFI) conference on the Deep Blue Sea sparked a collaboration between sonification expert Mark Ballora and marine biologist and sound artist Heather ... -
Mapping inter-cardiovascular time-frequency coherence to harmonic tension in sonification of ensemble interaction between a COVID-19 patient and the medical team
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)This paper presents exploratory work on sonic and visual representations of heartbeats of a COVID-19 patient and a medical team. The aim of this work is to sonify heart signals to reflect how a medical ... -
Musical features modification for less intrusive delivery of popular notification sounds
(Georgia Institute of TechnologyInternational Community on Auditory Display, 2021-06)Less intrusive information delivery has been a popular research topic for auditory displays. While most research has addressed this issue by creating new notification cues such as rendering ambient soundscapes or modifying ... -
