Sound sketchbook: Synthetic synesthesia on a mobile platform

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The authors present Sound Sketchbook, a mobile phone application featuring real-time sound synthesis based on simple yet evocative cross-modal data mappings. While originally designed as a tool for evaluation of audiovisual correspondences, the application is also appreciated as an enjoyable sound toy and has a strong potential as a multimedia education tool for children. The authors introduce the data mapping strategy of Sound Sketchbook with regard to synesthesia, describe new crossmodal interactions implemented on mobile devices, and discuss the effectiveness of the application based on user survey results.
