Upon publication almost 15 years ago, the first edition almost instantly became a trusted
reference, setting the stage for the coming decade, in which the explosion in research and …

The emergence of the metaverse, a virtual reality space, has ushered in a new era of digital
experiences and interactions in global information systems. With its unique social norms and …

Contemporary listeners are exposed to overlaid cacophonies of sonic sources, both
intentional and incidental. Such soundscape superposition can be usefully characterized by …

The domain of cscw, computer-supported collaborative work, and DSC, distributed
synchronous collaboration, spans real-time interactive multiuser systems, shared …

Since audition is omnidirectional, it is especially receptive to orientation modulation. Position
can be defined as the combination of location and orientation information. Location-based or …

Insert Figure 1 here. The previous chapter outlined the psychoacoustic theory behind
cyberspatial sound, recapitulated in Figure1, and the idea of audio augmented reality (AAR) …

We present an analytical framework for a cognitively informed organization of signals
involved in computational representations of spatial soundscape superposition, defined …

An introduction to spatial sound in the context of hypermedia, interactive multimedia, and
virtual reality is presented. Basic principals of relevant physics and psychophysics are …

Narrowcasting, in analogy to uni-, broad-, and multicasting, is a formalization of media
control functions that can be used to adjust exposure and receptiveness. Its idioms have …

1 Abstract/Objective This half-day tutorial introduces the theory and practice of spatial sound
for entertainment computing, including psychophysical (psychoacoustic) basis of spatial …
