Combining
Vibrotactile and Visual Technology With Sound
The Multisensory Sound Lab's
innovative
vibrotactile and visual technologies make it possible for students,
sitting
or standing, to feel sound vibrations through the floor.
Electronically
processing sound signals from microphones, musical instruments,
recordings,
the vibrotactile sound system directs them to loudspeakers and the
special
vibrating floor. The vibration technology translates sounds as follows:
Low pitch sounds are perceived as slow vibrations.
High pitch sounds are perceived as fast vibrations.
Intensity and rhythm information are also perceived through
the
vibrating
floor.
Making Sound Visible
The
Multisensory Sound Lab's Visualizer is an audio spectrum analyzer that
displays the harmonic content of sound on a color TV. The spectrum
analyzer's
vertical bars change in location and height depending on the
characteristics
of the sound. The 7-foot Lumasound Light's three banks of colored
lights responds to different frequency bands and intensities of sounds
"Being able to experience
several modes
of input (auditory, tactile, visual) has allowed students with
perceptual
and/or
learning problems the luxury of drawing up their sensory strengths,
thus
compensating for their weaknesses." --Alice-Ann Darrow, Ph.D., Art
&
Music Therapy Department, University of Kansas, Lawrence
