Reviews

This excellent book offers an introduction into the world of sound and interaction. Its chapters cover a wide range of subjects from Auditory Displays, Toys and Image Sonification. It is an invaluable text for students, researchers and artists who want to know more about the emerging field of audio interaction, and one that should definitely sit on the shelf of anyone who works in the world of design and sound. -- Dr Alan Chamberlain, Mixed Reality Lab, School of Computer Science, University of Nottingham Foundations in Sound Design for Embedded Media reverberates with valuable insight for today's practitioners. This volume brings together technological and methodological know-how, aesthetic sensitivity, and an understanding of how we listen and shows how these apply to the eclectic array of application areas embedded media now find themselves supporting; I am confident this book will spend more time on my desk than in my bookcase for quite some time to come. -- Paul Vickers, Associate Professor of Computer Science and Computational Perceptualisation, Northumbria University.
