Presentation / Conference Contribution
(2023). Proceedings of the 18th International Audio Mostly Conference. . https://doi.org/10.1145/3616195

Audio Mostly is an interdisciplinary conference on design and experience of interaction with sound that prides itself on embracing applied theory and reflective practice. Its annual gatherings bring together thinkers and doers from academia and indus... Read More about Proceedings of the 18th International Audio Mostly Conference.

Procedural Audio For Virtual Environments Workshop (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Di Donato, B., & Selfridge, R. (2022, September). Procedural Audio For Virtual Environments Workshop. Presented at Audio Mostly, St. Pölten, Austria

Sound design is a crucial aspect of interactive virtual environments (VEs). Often, this activity is fixated by the constraints of the tools we use or our perception of that medium. In this on-site workshop, we present methods to model sound-producing... Read More about Procedural Audio For Virtual Environments Workshop.

Sound design ideation: comparing four sound designers’ approaches (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Selfridge, R., & Pauletto, S. (2022, June). Sound design ideation: comparing four sound designers’ approaches. Presented at 19th Sound and Music Computing Conference, Saint-Étienne, France

The craft of sonic interaction design (SID) for new digital objects is a non-trivial task. A deeper understanding of sound design practices employed by professional sound designers and Foley artists offers a rich source of knowledge which may inform...

Investigating the sound design process: Two case studies from radio and film production (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Selfridge, R., & Pauletto, S. (2022). Investigating the sound design process: Two case studies from radio and film production. In DRS2022: Bilbao. https://doi.org/10.21606/drs.2022.772

This paper presents two case studies in which the sound design processes of two professional sound designers, from radio and film, are examined. Through a study procedure that uses techniques such as interviews, observations and a novel set of design...

Creating Real-Time Aeroacoustic Sound Effects Using Physically Informed Models (2018)
Journal Article
Selfridge, R., Moffat, D., Avital, E., & Reiss, J. (2018). Creating Real-Time Aeroacoustic Sound Effects Using Physically Informed Models. Journal of the Audio Engineering Society, 66(7/8), 594-607. https://doi.org/10.17743/jaes.2018.0033

Aeroacoustics is a branch of engineering within fluid dynamics. It encompasses sounds generated by disturbances in air either by an airflow being disturbed by an object or an object moving through air. A number of fundamental sound sources exist depe...

Physically Derived Synthesis Model of an Edge Tone (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Selfridge, R., Reiss, J. D., & Avital, E. J. (2018, May). Physically Derived Synthesis Model of an Edge Tone. Presented at 144th Audio Engineering Society Convention, Milan, Italy

The edge tone is the sound generated when a planar jet of air from a nozzle comes into contact with a wedge and a number of physical conditions are met. Fluid dynamics equations were used to synthesize authentic edge tones without the need for comple... Read More about Physically Derived Synthesis Model of an Edge Tone.

Sound Synthesis of Objects Swinging through Air Using Physical Models (2017)
Journal Article
Selfridge, R., Moffat, D., & Reiss, J. (2017). Sound Synthesis of Objects Swinging through Air Using Physical Models. Applied Sciences, 7(11), Article 1177. https://doi.org/10.3390/app7111177

A real-time physically-derived sound synthesis model is presented that replicates the sounds generated as an object swings through the air. Equations obtained from fluid dynamics are used to determine the sounds generated while exposing practical par... Read More about Sound Synthesis of Objects Swinging through Air Using Physical Models.
