Presence and Sound; Identifying Sonic Means to “Be there”

چکیده
The concept of "presence" is a major part of the discourse of VR. Creating a sense of presence can be crucial to the effectiveness of museum exhibits and VR presentations. Sound can play various roles in technology-based presentations, by creating or enhancing a sense of presence, and providing a continuity of experience. This paper discusses these points and how presence and sonic identification are important to such multi-disciplinary works, with examples drawn from the creation and implementation of the sound for a VR presentation of the Angkor ruins in Cambodia.
