Exploratory Sound Analysis: Sonifying Data about Sound
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sound is commonly analysed subjectively by listening to it. However, when we want to analyse a sound objectively, we often switch domains, and change to visual or numerical displays. While it is likely that, generally speaking, the visual sense dominates other senses, when the data being explored are sound the question naturally arises as to whether these data may be statistically represented in that same domain. This paper describes and demonstrates a general scheme for building statistical representations of sound that exist entirely within the auditory domain, and use the original audio data to present descriptive data.

Modeling and Sonifying Pen Strokes on Surfaces
This paper will describe the approach of modeling and sonifying the interaction with a pen on surfaces. The main acoustic parts and the dynamic behavior of the interaction are identified and a synthesis model is proposed to imitate the sound emanation during typical interactions on surfaces. Although a surface is twodimensional, modeling acoustical qualities of surfaces has to employ volumes to...
متن کاملRaster Scanning: A New Approach to Image Sonification, Sound Visualization, Sound Analysis And Synthesis
Raster scanning is a technique for generating or recording a video image by means of a line-by-line sweep, tantamount to a data mapping scheme between one and two dimensional spaces. While this geometric structure has been widely used on many data transmission and storage systems as well as most video displaying and capturing devices, its application to audio related research or art is rare. In...

متن کاملA Framework for Sonification of Vicon Motion Capture Data
This paper describes experiments on sonifying data obtained using the VICON motion capture system. The main goal is to build the necessary infrastructure in order to be able to map motion parameters of the human body to sound. For sonification the following three software frameworks were used: Marsyas, traditionally used for music information retrieval with audio analysis and synthesis, CHUCK, ...
متن کاملA new method for acquisition and analysis of single unit recording data
Single unit recording has been used as a well-known technique to study the electrical behavior of neurons. In this respect, the classical methods are rather expensive. In this study a simple and inexpensive method for single unit recording studies has been introduced. Computer sound card was used for data acquisition. Neural responses were saved via simple sound applicable packages and then ana...
