Sonic Interaction Design

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Sonic Interaction Design is the study and exploitation of sound as one of the principal channels conveying information, meaning, and aesthetic/emotional qualities in interactive contexts. Sonic Interaction Design is at the intersection of Interaction Design and Sound and Music Computing. If Interaction design is about designing objects people interact with, and such interactions are facilitated by computational means, in Sonic Interaction Design sound is mediating interaction either as a display of processes or as an input medium. Research in this area focuses on experimental scientific findings about human sound reception in interactive contexts.
