University of Applied Sciences St. Pölten Sonification Analysis Methods by Utilizing Translation Strategy⋆ The prevalence of sonification works for astronomy research and education has notably increased [1], with the Sonification Handbook outlining multiple strategies for implementing mappings of data to sound [2]. However, a definitive evaluation framework for the mappings is lacking. To address this issue, translation strategies can be used as a method to assess sonification outcomes since sonification can be regarded as a form of intersemiotic translation according to Jacobson [3]. First, a literature review and practice review were conducted on comprehensively analyse sonification mappings according to Vinay and Darbelnet’s seven translation strategies. Second, two empirical experiments were conducted using a tool developed to sonify star data and enable the observation of stellar features through sound. Results showed that sonification mapping strategies can be a novel classification method to improve description reproducibility. It also enhances the perceptibility and interpretability of sonified astronomical data. These results contribute to the field of sonification, offering a new perspective on the design and evaluation of auditory displays for astronomical data and data in general. en TEXT conference object Konferenzveröffentlichung Risultato di convegno book part Buchkapitel Capitolo di libro Testo Risultato di convegno Capitolo di libro Text Konferenzveröffentlichung Buchkapitel Text conference object book part Medien- und Kommunikationswissenschaften ÖFOS 2012 -- SOZIALWISSENSCHAFTEN (5) -- Medien- und Kommunikationswissenschaften (508) -- Medien- und Kommunikationswissenschaften (5080) Informationstechnik ÖFOS 2012 -- TECHNISCHE WISSENSCHAFTEN (2) -- Elektrotechnik, Elektronik, Informationstechnik (202) -- Elektrotechnik, Elektronik, Informationstechnik (2020) -- Informationstechnik (202022) Audiovisuelle Medien ÖFOS 2012 -- TECHNISCHE WISSENSCHAFTEN (2) -- Elektrotechnik, Elektronik, Informationstechnik (202) -- Elektrotechnik, Elektronik, Informationstechnik (2020) -- Audiovisuelle Medien (202002) Kunstwissenschaften ÖFOS 2012 -- GEISTESWISSENSCHAFTEN (6) -- Kunstwissenschaften (604) -- Kunstwissenschaften (6040) Media and Communication Sciences ÖFOS 2012 -- SOCIAL SCIENCES (5) -- Media and Communication Sciences (508) -- Media and Communication Sciences (5080) Information technology ÖFOS 2012 -- TECHNICAL SCIENCES (2) -- Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Information Engineering (202) -- Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Information Engineering (2020) -- Information technology (202022) Audiovisual media ÖFOS 2012 -- TECHNICAL SCIENCES (2) -- Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Information Engineering (202) -- Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Information Engineering (2020) -- Audiovisual media (202002) Arts ÖFOS 2012 -- HUMANITIES (6) -- Arts (604) -- Arts (6040) Sonification Intersemiotic Translation Translation Strategy 2024-11-27 Miku Fujimoto Xinru Zhu Kayoko Nohara St. Pölten University of Applied Sciences Medien- und Kommunikationswissenschaften Media and Communication Sciences Informationstechnik Information technology Audiovisuelle Medien Audiovisual media Kunstwissenschaften Arts
