Sound as affect: Difference, power and spatiality

Inhabited silence: sound constructions of monastic spatiality

Affect, Sound Symbolism, and Variation

I will show how two preadolescent girls use the quality of /o/ and of the nucleus of /ay/ to index affect. Most particularly, how they use backed and raised occurrences to express what one might generally (and inadequately) call negative affect, and fronted occurrences to express what one might call sweetness and light, or a kind of childhood innocence. It remains to be seen how this kind of va...

Depth Perception as a Function of Lighting, Time and Spatiality

Perceptual qualities of luminous environment change based on spatiality, time, and observer. This paper focuses on the complex interrelationships between architectural configurations, luminance distribution patterns, and the perception of spatial depth. A computational framework that draws from the recent developments in computer graphics (physically based renderings and perceptually based tone...

Artificiality, and Spatiality

We begin by reviewing current spatial approaches to CSCW (mediaspaces, spatial video conferencing, collaborative virtual environments and telepresence applications) and classifying them along the proposed dimensions of transportation, artificiality and spatiality. This classification leads us to identify new shared space applications; so called mixed realities. We present an example of a mixed ...

Growth‐form and spatiality driving the functional difference of native and alien aquatic plants in Europe

Trait-based approaches are widely used in community ecology and invasion biology to unravel underlying mechanisms of vegetation dynamics. Although fundamental trade-offs between specific traits and invasibility are well described among terrestrial plants, little is known about their role and function in aquatic plant species. In this study, we examine the functional differences of aquatic alien...
