  2. 1. Before Sound: Transversal Processes in Site-Specific Sonic Practice

    Author : Åsa Stjerna; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; sound installation; site specific; site specificity; sound art; artistic research; philosophy of immanence; assemblage; affect; ethics; public space; transversality; transversal; Gilles Deleuze; Félix Guattari; sonification; sound design; sonic practice; transformation;

    Abstract : This doctoral research explores the capacity of site-specific practices of sound installation to bring about transformation. It claims that in order to understand this capacity, we need to address the complexity of the transversal processes that make up artistic practices in this field, and understand that these transversal processes in fact precede sound.

  4. 2. Mapping and Merging Using Sound and Vision : Automatic Calibration and Map Fusion with Statistical Deformations

    Author : Gabrielle Flood; Matematik LTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Time of arrival; TOA; Time-difference of arrival; TDOA; Subsample methods; Uncertainty measure; Constant offset; RANSAC; Map merging; Map fusion; Change detection; Collaborative SLAM; Structure from motion; SfM; SLAM; Mapping; Localisation; Registration; Sparse maps; Point clouds;

    Abstract : Over the last couple of years both cameras, audio and radio sensors have become cheaper and more common in our everyday lives. Such sensors can be used to create maps of where the sensors are positioned and the appearance of the surroundings. READ MORE

  5. 3. Voicing on the borders of language

    Author : Imogen Stidworthy; Konsthögskolan i Malmö; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Language; Voicing; Listening; Non-verbal communication; Metacinematic; Rub-up; Installation; Video art; Cinema; Image; Non-retinal image; Sound; Mirroring; Mimesis; Post-cinematic affect; Autism; Aphasia; Cross-modal sensing; Synaesthesia; Psychoanalysis; Neurology; Developmental psychology; Infant development; Intensive interaction; Speech therapy; Auditory surveillance; Forensic listening; Psychiatry;

    Abstract : My research engages with the varieties of relationship between verbal and non-verbal forms of language and communication. I approach the issue through three people who live or work with non-verbal people on the autistic spectrum: Phoebe Caldwell, Fernand Deligny and Iris Johansson. READ MORE

  6. 4. Mapping Individual Voice Quality over the Voice Range : The Measurement Paradigm of the Voice Range Profile

    Author : Peter Pabon; Sten Ternström; Maria Södersten; Ingo Titze; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Voice Range Profile VRP ; Phonetogram; Voice Field; Voice quality; Singing voice; Voice synthesis; Clinical voice assessment; Sound level measurement; Maximum Entropy; Tal- och musikkommunikation; Speech and Music Communication;

    Abstract : The acoustic signal of voiced sounds has two primary attributes: fundamental frequency and sound level. It has also very many secondary attributes, or ‘voice qualities’, that can be derived from the acoustic signal, in particular from its periodicity and its spectrum. READ MORE

  7. 5. Urban Sound Planning - An attempt to bridge the gap

    Author : Laura Estévez Mauriz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; prediction methods; road traffic noise; traffic dynamics; Urban sound planning; quiet side; urban systems; citizen participation; urban strategies;

    Abstract : Cities are constantly between transition and adaptation, where current urban development needs a consistent strategic solution capable of understanding and including the relationships between urban form, environment and urban life. Awareness of the quality of the urban environment is leading the vision on the resilience and sustainability of the built environment, highlighting the importance of a multidisciplinary urban framework.
