Escultores del sonido: prácticas musicales creativas como elemento de transformación social
2020
El principal objetivo de esta investigación es mostrar de qué manera los usos de la tecnología planteados por músicos sin formación académica (“no músicos”), ofrecen un nuevo marco para la transformación social a través de sus prácticas musicales creativas. Como metodología de trabajo se utilizó la investigación etnográfica y la muestra se conformó a través de trece participantes con perfiles profesionales y trayectorias vitales de gran diversidad, con un patrón de coincidencia común: no tener formación musical académica (conservatorio). Como instrumentos y técnicas se emplearon las propias de esta metodología: las entrevistas individuales y grupales, el análisis documental de plataformas d…
To embody or not to embody: A sound design dilemma
2019
Designing with sound is about constructing appropriate sound representations of a concept, from the early ideas to the final product. A survey research on embodied sound sketching is presented, and the problems of early representation in sound design are discussed by analysing the questionnaire results of three workshops on vocal sketching.
Outils innovants pour la création d’esquisses sonores combinant vocalisations et gestes
Les designers produisent différents types de représentations physiques et/ou digitales lors des différentes phases d'un processus de design. Ces objets intermédiaires de représentation permettent et supportent l'incarnation des idées du designer, de les externaliser, mais aussi la médiation entre les personnes qui sont impliquées dans les différentes phases du design (designers produits, ingénieurs, marketing, ...). Les designers sonores, eux aussi, produisent des sons intermédiaires pour les présenter aux commanditaires par un processus itératif de raffinement de ces propositions. Ainsi ces différents sons intermédiaires sont des esquisses sonores qui représentent les différentes étapes in…
Growing the practice of vocal sketching
2015
Sketch-thinking in the design domain is a complex representational activity, emerging from the reflective conversation with the sketch. A recent line of research on computational support for sound design has been focusing on the exploitation of voice, and especially vocal imitations, as effective representation strategy for the early stage of the design process. A set of introductory exercises on vocal sketching, to probe the communication effectiveness of vocal imitations for design purposes, are presented and discussed, in the scope of the research-through-design workshop activities of the EU project SkAT-VG
Understanding cooperative sound design through linkographic analysis
2016
Protocol and linkographic analysis are applied to a task of cooperative vocal sketching, proposed in the scope of educational research activites. The understanding of the cognitive behaviors involved in sound creation is aimed at setting the ground for the development of rigorous, designerly evaluation practices tailored to sound design. We show how relevant qualitative and quantitative information about the creative process can be used to inform the assessment and possibly improvement of vocal sketching methods.
Cooperative sound design: a protocol analysis
2016
Formal protocol analysis and linkographic representations are well-established approaches in design cognition studies, in the visual domain. We introduce the method and tools in the auditory domain, by analysing a case of collaborative sound design. We show how they can provide relevant qualitative and quantitative information about the efficiency of the creative process.
Signal processing techniques for robust sound event recognition
2019
The computational analysis of acoustic scenes is today a topic of major interest, with a growing community focused on designing machines capable of identifying and understanding the sounds produced in our environment, similar to how humans perform this task. Although these domains have not reached the industrial popularity of other related audio domains, such as speech recognition or music analysis, applications designed to identify the occurrence of sounds in a given scenario are rapidly increasing. These applications are usually limited to a set of sound classes, which must be defined beforehand. In order to train sound classification models, representative sets of sound events are record…

De la perception de la voyelle /y/ chez des apprenants polonais du français langue étrangère
2019
The main objective of this study is to test the perception of the vowel /y/ among the Polish learners of FLE, as it does not exist in their natural vowel system. We defend the hypothesis that optimal perception conditions can make the identification and acquisition of new sounds more intelligible.
