- Abstract: 200-500 words
- This exegesis investigates two interactive sound design projects, describing each one in terms of techniques, concepts, and processes that went into their realisation. It describes how collaborative processes helped me become better at working on solo projects, how technical skills helped me to apply conceptual knowledge, and how Pierre Schaeffer’s theories of the sonic object can be applied to the design of interactive sound environments. In the process I explain some unique aspects of interactive sound design, suggesting a suite of methodological, technical, and conceptual tools for the interactive sound designer. I then reflect on the ways I combined these tools, and propose a methodology of transcoding systems.
