Il Y A L'Autre Dans Le Je(U) : Le Monologue Chez Brian Friel, Noel Fitzpatrick
Il Y A L'Autre Dans Le Je(U) : Le Monologue Chez Brian Friel, Noel Fitzpatrick
Conference papers
This conference paper (in French) explores the construction of interlocution in the monologues of Brian Friel's theatre. It proposes a novel means of analysis of the monologue by mobilising key developments in French pragmatic linguistic analysis of I and You and interlocution.
Harmonically Combined Contour Icons For Concurrent Auditory Display, Charlie Cullen, Eugene Coyle
Harmonically Combined Contour Icons For Concurrent Auditory Display, Charlie Cullen, Eugene Coyle
Conference papers
This paper considers the harmonic combination of basic melodic shapes known as contour icons in concurrent auditory displays. Existing work in the field (such as that concerning earcons) has considered the combination of patterns designed using low level cognitive features, and so effective streaming is difficult. This work investigates means by which musical patterns with high level cognitive features (such as contour) representing data values can be rendered concurrently, so that multiple data sets can be effectively conveyed using an auditory display. The detection and comprehension of harmonically combined contour icons was tested in comparison to those combined uniquely (non …
Musical Pattern Design Using Contour Icons, Charlie Cullen, Eugene Coyle
Musical Pattern Design Using Contour Icons, Charlie Cullen, Eugene Coyle
Conference papers
This paper considers the use of Contour Icons in the design and implementation of musical patterns, for the purposes of detection and recognition. Research work had endeavoured to deliver musical patterns that were both distinct and memorable, and to this end a set of basic melodic shapes were introduced using a Sonification application called TrioSon that had been designed for the purpose. Existing work in the field (such as that concerning Earcon design) has considered the mechanisms by which patterns may be made distinctive, but it is argued that separate consideration must be given to the method of making such …
The Sonic Representation Of Mathematical Data, Charlie Cullen
The Sonic Representation Of Mathematical Data, Charlie Cullen
Doctoral
Conveying data and information using non-speech audio is an ever growing field of research. Existing work has been performed investigating sonfication and its applications, and this research seeks to build upon these ideas while also suggesting new areas of potential. In this research, initial work focused on the sonification of DNA and RNA nucleotide base sequences for analysis. A case study was undertaken into the potential of rhythmic parsing of such data sequences, with test results indicating that a more effective method of representing data in a sonification was required. Sonification of complex data such as DNA and RNA was …
