- Thomas Grill, Arthur Flexer, Stuart Cunningham
- This paper is about exploring which perceptual qualities are
relevant to people listening to textural sounds. Knowledge
about those personal constructs shall eventually lead to more
intuitive interfaces for browsing large sound libraries. By
conducting mixed qualitative-quantitative interviews within
the repertory grid framework ten bi-polar qualities are identi
ed. A subsequent web-based study yields measures for
inter-rater agreement and mutual similarity of the perceptual
qualities based on a selection of 100 textural sounds.
Additionally, some initial experiments are conducted to test
standard audio descriptors for their correlation with the perceptual
qualities.
