  • Hear Where We Are

    Sound, Ecology, and Sense of Place

    by Michael Stocker ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Throughout history, hearing and sound perception have been typically framed in the context of how sound conveys information and how that information influences the listener. "Hear Where We Are" inverts this premise and examines how humans and other hearing animals use sound to establish acoustical relationships with their surroundings.This simple inversion reveals a panoply of possibilities by ...

  • Loudness

    Edited by Mary Florentine, Arthur N. Popper, Richard R. Fay ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Loudness is the primary psychological correlate of intensity. When the intensity of a sound increases, loudness increases. However, there exists no simple one-to-one correspondence between loudness and intensity; loudness can be changed by modifying the frequency or the duration of the sound, or by adding background sounds. Loudness also changes with the listener’s cognitive state. Loudness ... Read more
