| Competently produced audio invariably enhances the overall
effectiveness of any graphical presentation whether it be a motion picture,
virtual reality world, or graphical computer interface.
Despite this fact, media and software developers often give graphics
first priority with audio being an afterthought. The
GVU AudioLab exists to eliminate
this deficiency. Through multidisciplinary collaboration, research, and
development, AudioLab seeks to:
-
develop tools and techniques that will allow
non-experts to intuitively
integrate sound,music, and voice with graphics.
-
investigate new methods for spatial (3-D) audio
design and editing
-
act as a resource for other
GVU groups to exploit to enhance
the audio components of their research.
-
work with artists to explore new applications
of digital audio technology in live and recorded performance.
-
support instruction in the
College of Computing in the areas of
sound design, editing, and
production.
