Guest Editors' Introduction: An Introduction to Interactive Sonification

Thomas Hermann, A. Hunt

Open publisher page 100 citations

Abstract

The research field of sonification, a subset of the topic of auditory display, has developed rapidly in recent decades. It brings together interests from the areas of data mining, exploratory data analysis, human-computer interfaces, and computer music. Sonification presents information by using sound (particularly nonspeech), so that the user of an auditory display obtains a deeper understanding of the data or processes under investigation by listening.
