p.3 "[Auditory Display] can, after all, encompass the disciplines of cognitive and experimental psychology, psychoacoustics, communication, education, computer science, mathematics, statistics, linguistics, psychomusicology, sound analysis and sythesis, music composition and all the data generating fields. ... Information-generating sources, sound-generating and manipulating techniques, human perception and comprehension, all must be throughly comprehended in order to assure effectiveness in the field." Added by: Mark Grimshaw-Aagaard |
p.8 "...the use of soundtracks in computer software, games, and so on offers these media advantages identical to film soundtracks. Fear, anticipation, calm, humor, and other emotions can all be suggested." Added by: Mark Grimshaw-Aagaard |
p.67 Quoting R.B. Dannenberg (unreferenced) providing a meaning of timbre as a demonstration of the paucity of audial descriptive tools in everyday language: "...we picked out the two things we understood, pitch and amplitude, and called everything else timbre. So timbre is by definition that which we cannot explain." Added by: Mark Grimshaw-Aagaard |
