Telling people about virtual places: A qualitative perspective
Turner, Phil; McGregor, Iain
Abstract
This paper presents an investigation into how sound can be used to create a sense of place (that is, the sense of being in that particular place). In the study, people were asked to speak aloud and tell us what they could hear. The analysis of these concurrent verbalizations is a particular focus of this work. We also demonstrate the usefulness of this data and offer a novel interpretation based on the work of the phenomenologist Martin Heidegger.
