Sound matters: Notes toward the analysis and design of sound in multimodal webtexts

نویسنده

  • Heidi McKee
چکیده

In this essay, I draw from approaches in voice, music, theater, and film studies to examine four elements of sound: vocal delivery, music, special effects, and silence. Within this four-part schema, I discuss a variety of frameworks that I hope may serve as resources for those seeking to engage in both the analysis and production of sound in multimodal webtexts. Throughout the essay, I analyze several poetic Flash texts, and I consider the relationship of part-to-whole and whole-to-part when seeking to analyze and compose with multiple modes. © 2006 Published by Elsevier Inc.

Effects of light and sound stimuli on spatial distribution and swimming activity of Daphnia under laboratory conditions

Aquatic ecosystems are heterogeneous in terms of light and sound distribution. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of environmental abiotic factors, light and sound stimuli, on Daphnia (Daphnia magna) swimming behaviour.  Here, we examined behavioural changes of Daphnia (N=24) in response to light and sound treatments simultaneously. The treatments concerned a 2×2 design with br...

Design and fabrication of an ultrasonic thermoacoustic generator using metal nanocoatings (Research Article)

In this paper, we design, simulate, and build an ultrasonic heat generator. In thermoacoustics, heat generated by the passage of alternating current through a thin conductor produces a sound wave. In this method, unlike other methods of sound production, moving parts are not used to vibrate air molecules, and as a result, the frequency response of these generators is flatter than other sound ge...

Calculation of the drop in sound pressure level and frequency analysis of aerospace engine test cell (Research Article)

Aerospace engines testing is a source of noise pollution and determining the low frequency acoustic characteristics of the test cell, plays an important role in optimally control of the sound field and reducing the level of sound pressure and pollution. In this study, the drop in average sound pressure level is numerically predicted by constructing a test cell according to ISO 140 standard. To ...
