Why Just Visualisation?

This paper discusses the dynamic relationship which exists between the seen (object, space) and the heard, where the sound can transform our perception of the visual/spatial content, and further how this can be transformed by interaction. It proposes that seeing is typically focused on ‘one thing at a time’, whereas hearing is active, multivalent and typically focused on plural sources, and further that interaction, by involving the persona as well as the senses in active engagement, generates a new relationship to the sensory experience.
