This paper presents SoniScope, a multimodal approach and its prototypical implementation based on this metaphor. It combines a scatterplot with an interactive parameter mapping sonification, thereby conveying additional information about items that were selected with a visual lens. SoniScope explores several design options for the shape of its lens and the sorting of the selected items for subsequent sonification. Furthermore, the open-source prototype serves as a blueprint framework for how to combine D3.js visualization and SuperCollider sonification in the Jupyter notebook environment. based input / output Sound Auditory feedback Visualization systems and tools Human centered computing http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ https://phaidra.ustp.at/api/object/o:4883/download 978-3-03868-184-7 10.2312/evs.20221095 https://phaidra.ustp.at/o:4776 https://phaidra.ustp.at/o:7146 application/pdf EuroVisShort2022 (2022) EuroVisShort2022 1.38 MB 2022
