    Real-Time 3D Graphic Augmentation of Therapeutic Music Sessions for People on the Autism Spectrum

    Real-time 3D Graphic Augmentation of Therapeutic Music Sessions for People on the Autism Spectrum John Joseph McGowan Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Edinburgh Napier University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2018 Declaration I, John McGowan, declare that the work contained within this thesis has not been submitted for any other degree or professional qualification. Furthermore, the thesis is the result of the student’s own independent work. Published material associated with the thesis is detailed within the section on Associate Publications. Signed: Date: 12th October 2019 J J McGowan Abstract i Abstract This thesis looks at the requirements analysis, design, development and evaluation of an application, CymaSense, as a means of improving the communicative behaviours of autistic participants through therapeutic music sessions, via the addition of a visual modality. Autism spectrum condition (ASC) is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disorder that can affect people in a number of ways, commonly through difficulties in communication. Interactive audio-visual feedback can be an effective way to enhance music therapy for people on the autism spectrum. A multi-sensory approach encourages musical engagement within clients, increasing levels of communication and social interaction beyond the sessions. Cymatics describes a resultant visualised geometry of vibration through a variety of mediums, typically through salt on a brass plate or via water. The research reported in this thesis focuses on how an interactive audio-visual application, based on Cymatics, might improve communication for people on the autism spectrum. A requirements analysis was conducted through interviews with four therapeutic music practitioners, aimed at identifying working practices with autistic clients.
  • From Hydrophonics to Interactive Sound Fountains

    From Hydrophonics to Interactive Sound Fountains

    From Hydrophonics to Interactive Sound Fountains Johannes Birringer From “Series One” – Open Studio Exhibition, Derby University April – May 2008. Although modest and seemingly unspectacular, Caroline Locke’s phrase “seeing sound” – a phrase she used to describe her interests in creating sculptural sound-performance works when I first met her in 2004 – has stuck with me. It is an odd paradox, but one that has gained resonance in recent years as we have moved along with the scientific and technological advances in a culture obsessed with data visualizations and location mapping. Today’s ultrasonic medical scanning of our arterial blood flow allows us to peer inside ourselves, so to speak. We depend on x-ray vision to diagnose a fracture of our bones, and neurologists look into our brains to pinpoint areas responsible for thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sound and vision are two closely related sensory registers, yet we do not commonly think of sight being audible, and sound being visible. We do not see with our ears, we use them to listen to the wind as we go forth in the world, as the anthropologist Tim Ingold once suggested, noting that wind and breath are intimately related in the continuous movement of inhalation and exhalation that is fundamental to life and being.1 1 Cf. Tim Ingold, “Against Soundscape,” in Angus Carlyle (ed.), Autumn. Leaves: Sound and the Environment in Artistic Practice (Paris: Double Entendre, 2007), pp. 10-13. 2 Even though my immediate contact with Caroline Locke’s artistic creativity and collaborative ventures was limited to a brief two-year period (2004-05), I propose to reflect here on her major performance installation Hydrophonics (2005) and her on-going preoccupation with water and sound, attempting to sketch a particular collaborative and interactive trajectory in the various manifestations of her artistic project.

Yet, little research has been published on developing frameworks for design and evaluation of digital mindfulness facilitating technologies. Moreover, many existing digital mindfulness applications are purely software based. There is room for further exploration and assessment of designs that make more use of physical qualities of artifacts. Objective: The study aimed to develop and test a new physical digital mindfulness prototype designed for stress reduction. Methods: In this case study, we designed, developed, and evaluated HU, a physical digital mindfulness prototype designed for stress reduction. In the first phase, we used vapor and light to support mindful breathing and invited 25 participants through snowball sampling to test HU. In the second phase, we added sonification. We deployed a package of probes such as photos, diaries, and cards to collect data from users who explored HU in their homes.

    Firmament of Sound

    Firmament of Sound Before there were eyes to see when a vast darkness still permeated the void, All rested beneath a firmament of Sound. I stare into the primal pool breath ripples the water and light appears –as if from within– a raiment of pastel profusion barely the faintest hint of definition. I open myself and eyes appear –as if from within– so that I might see myself apart from the landscape, a part of the landscape– my original face peering out of the darkness, peering into the void. Without fear; without pain; no sharp edges; no hard places; no borders. Nothing to recoil from no need for protection no need for rejection– no separation. I raise my voice and Behold! I Create my own personal playground, a universe of figure, form and motion arising from my impetuous imagination. © 2009, Jeff Volk Autumn 2010 FROM VIBRATION TO MANIFESTATION: Assuming our Rightful Place in Creation All is vibration! ––Novalis Editor’s Note: The following article builds on Cymatics: Insights into the Invisible World of Sound, published in the Summer 2009 issue of The Quester. A brief overview of the science of Cymatics will be given at the outset, but for a more thorough understanding, please refer to that article at http://www.cymaticsource.com/pdf/CaduceusArticle.pdf. Cymatics in a Sound-bite Cymatics, the study of wave phenomena and vibration, is a scientific methodology that demonstrates the vibratory nature of matter and the transformational nature of sound. It is sound science at its finest, and its implications are vast! The term (Kymatiks in German), was adapted from the Greek word for wave, ta Kyma, in the 1960s by Swiss medical doctor and natural scientist, Hans Jenny (1904-1972).
  • Identity and Resiliency Construction in Underserved Youth Through Vocal Expression

    Identity and Resiliency Construction in Underserved Youth Through Vocal Expression

    A Singing Sanctuary: Identity and Resiliency Construction in Underserved Youth through Vocal Expression by Anna K. Martin A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Ethnomusicology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2013 © Anna K. Martin, 2013 Abstract In this ethnography of a youth choir I demonstrate the relationship between youth cultural identity construction and increased resiliency by providing stories and reflections about individual and group expression through voice. I have discovered through my research that it is not only vocal expression through song that supports identity construction and resiliency, but also the space of shared intimacy that is created through musical/vocal agency. I also revealed an underlying tone of youth resistance through voice. Working within the framework of Teacher Action Research I set out to use my findings to aid and inform my teaching practices in support and empowerment of youth in my community. The research methods employed were audio recording, class observation, personal journaling, and interviews (group and individual). I understood that as a participant and as the subject’s teacher that I entered this research with certain biases and assumptions, but at the same time I knew that my proximity to the subject would give me insight in ways that would not be accessible to an outside observer. I was also cognizant of the fact that I was conducting “fieldwork at home,” recognizing through the literature review and research that this methodology also comes with challenges in terms of objectivity and clarity of subject and roles.
