The Routledge Handbook of Sound Design offers a comprehensive overview of the diverse contexts of creativity and research that characterize contemporary sound design practice. Readers will find expansive coverage of sound design in relation to games, VR, globalization, performance, soundscape and feminism, amongst other fields. Half a century since its formal emergence, this book considers sound design in a plethora of practical contexts, including music, film, soundscape and sonification, as well as the emerging theoretical and analytical approaches being used in scholarship on the subject. The Routledge Handbook of Sound Design tracks how ideas and techniques have migrated from one field to the next, as professionals expand the industry applications for their skills and knowledge, and technologies produce new form factors for entertainment and information. Collectively, the chapters included in this volume illustrate the robustness and variety of contemporary sound design research and creativity, making The Routledge Handbook of Sound Design essential reading for students, teachers, researchers and practitioners working on sound design in its many forms.
This open access book tackles the design of 3D spatial interactions in an audio-centered and audio-first perspective, providing the fundamental notions related to the creation and evaluation of immersive sonic experiences. The key elements that enhance the sensation of place in a virtual environment (VE) are: Immersive audio: the computational aspects of the acoustical-space properties of Virutal Reality (VR) technologies Sonic interaction: the human-computer interplay through auditory feedback in VE VR systems: naturally support multimodal integration, impacting different application domains Sonic Interactions in Virtual Environments will feature state-of-the-art research on real-time aural...
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of two conferences: The 7th EAI International Conference on ArtsIT, Interactivity and Game Creation (ArtsIT 2018), and the 3rd EAI International Conference on Design, Learning, and Innovation (DLI 2018). Both conferences were hosed in Braga, Portugal, and took place October 24-26, 2018. The 51 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from 106 submissions. ArtsIT , Interactivity and Game Creation is meant to be a place where people in arts, with a keen interest in modern IT technologies, meet with people in IT, having strong ties to art in their works. The event also reflects the advances seen in the open related topi...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Symposium on Music Technology with Swing, CMMR 2017, held in Matosinhos, Portugal, in September 2017. The 44 full papers presented were selected from 64 submissions. The papers are grouped in eight sections: music information retrieval, automatic recognition, estimation and classification, electronic dance music and rhythm, computational musicology, sound in practice: auditory guidance and feedback in the context of motor learning and motor adaptation, human perception in multimodal context, cooperative music networks and musical HCIs, virtual and augmented reality, research and creation: spaces and modalities.
Auditory Interfaces explores how human-computer interactions can be significantly enhanced through the improved use of the audio channel. Providing historical, theoretical and practical perspectives, the book begins with an introductory overview, before presenting cutting-edge research with chapters on embodied music recognition, nonspeech audio, and user interfaces. This book will be of interest to advanced students, researchers and professionals working in a range of fields, from audio sound systems, to human-computer interaction and computer science.

Come può essere definito il digitale? Come percepiamo e interagiamo con oggetti, eventi e ambienti in questa nuova era? E come viviamo il nostro corpo in contesti diversi da quello analogico, come la realtà virtuale o aumentata? Si tratta di domande al centro della riflessione contemporanea, riflessione che si ispira alla tradizione filosofica, ma si apre anche al dialogo con le scienze dell’informazione. Partendo da questi interrogativi, l’autrice esplora i temi del digitale e dell’Intelligenza Artificiale attraverso la prospettiva fenomenologica. Viene così proposta una lunga introduzione alla fenomenologia del digitale, che rimodula la questione della tecnica e tratta lo sviluppo...
Das Handbuch positioniert den inflationär gebrauchten Begriff „Virtualität“ neu. Er soll nicht länger einen Ausnahmetatbestand unserer Gegenwartskultur bezeichnen. Auch soll er nicht länger auf bestimmte Bereiche (Unterhaltung, Computerspiel) beschränkt bleiben. Vielmehr hat er inzwischen Normalität erlangt und soll in eben dieser Normalität auch beschrieben werden. Dazu werden in Fallstudien sehr unterschiedliche Schauplätze in den Blick genommen, die in der Lebenswelt verankert sind: Diese reichen von der Pädagogik bis zur Medizin, von der Kunst bis zur Industrie, von einer veränderten Kriegsführung bis zu alternativen Konzepten von Autorschaft.
Virtualität prägt Lebenswelten auf vielschichtige, widersprüchliche und teils überraschende Weise. Das Early Career Forum des Sonderforschungsbereichs »Virtuelle Lebenswelten« der Ruhr-Universität Bochum zeichnet lexikalisch die Komplexität des Virtuellen nach, widmet sich dessen facettenreichen, kontroversen Erfahrungen und bietet durch pointierte Begriffsarbeit inhaltliche und methodologische Zugänge zum Thema. Virtualität deutet umfassenden sozialen und kulturellen Wandel an, virtuelle Lebenswelten können aber nur situiert verstanden werden – verwoben mit und losgelöst von digitalen Technologien.
