Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, P., McGregor, I., Turner, S., & Carroll, F. (2003, July). Evaluating soundscapes as a means of creating a sense of place. Presented at International Conference on Auditory Display, ICAD 2003

We report an empirical study into the creation of, and
response to, a soundscape of a computer centre. We contrast
the use of presence questionnaires, as means of assessing the sense of being-there, against a more phenomenological

Extending the unified modelling language to model complex interactive timeline-based systems (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Smith, I., Turner, P., & McGregor, I. (2002, September). Extending the unified modelling language to model complex interactive timeline-based systems. Presented at HCI 2002, London

The increased take-up of Interactive Television, 3G and broadband networks is effecting a growth in the use of interactive, timeline-based media. This paper will describe how to facilitate the design of linear narrative systems utilising the extensib...

Soundfields and soundscapes: reifying auditory communities (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McGregor, I., Crerar, A., Benyon, D., & Macaulay, C. (2002, July). Soundfields and soundscapes: reifying auditory communities. Presented at International Conference on Auditory Displays (ICAD 2002) Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute (ATR), Kyoto, Japan

This paper reports progress towards mapping workplace soundscapes. In order to design auditory interfaces that integrate effectively with workplace environments, we need a detailed understanding of the way in which end users inhabit these environment...
