the complex nature of speech perception‚ we find it is not so easy. It involves the acoustic cues being extracted from the signal. This signal then needs to be stored in the sensory memory and identified on to a map of linguistic structure. To understand this process we need to consider the stimulus presented and what factors play a part in how we perceive it. Considering the complexity and variation in the acoustic patterns produced by speech‚ we are reminded that while this process may appear effortless

Five Musicological Fields: The study of music also known as musicology encompasses five distinct fields. These include the study of historical musicology‚ ethnomusicology‚ philosophy of music‚ psychology of music and acoustics (Nation-master‚ 2013). The first major field‚ historical musicology‚ is the study of musical origins including subjects such as composers‚ genres and musical notation. Ethnomusicology is the second major field of musicology and is based around the field studies on music in

to the vocals is move them up closer to the listener. I did this because the vocals are in a way more personal and I felt that this makes more since. The vocals are also in the center panned to both sides. Just behind the vocals I have placed the acoustic guitar and the electric guitar. I have also placed them both close to the listener. I have done this because the role that they both play in this song is less of a rhythmic or place holder type and more of a vocal like supporting role. They are

ABSTRACT We present Skinput ‚ a technology that appropriates the human body for acoustic transmission‚ allowing the skin to be used as an input surface. In particular‚ we resolve the location of finger taps on the arm and hand by analyzing mechanical vibrations that propagate through the body. We collect these signals using a novel array of sensors worn a san armband. This approach provides an always available ‚ naturally portable‚ and on-body finger input system. We assess the capabilities

An instrument is a tool of music. Just like all tools it allows us to assemble pieces‚ in the case of music it allows us to build song. Some instruments can be very subtle and soft and quite melodic such as a woodwind‚ where as there are also instruments that are very powerful‚ such as a trumpet and become the heart of a song or symphony. But I believe there is only one instrument that can be both subtle and also be powerful. Belonging the family of chordophones‚ the guitar‚ is my personal preference

1) Explain how prolonged exposure to loud noise is likely to cause deafness? Sound waves enters through your ear and travels through a narrow passage called ear canal‚ which then leads to your ear drums. Then the ear drums vibrate from the incoming sound waves and sends these sound vibrations to your three tiny bones called malleus‚ incus‚ and stapes. When the sound vibration hits the fluid movement in the cochlea of the inner ear. An elastic partition goes through the cochlea‚ which starts from

effects of acoustic and semantic similarity on short and long term recall. Gave participants words that were acoustically and semantically similar and dissimilar. Participants difficulty in remembering acoustically in STM but not LTM. Semantically similar words easily remembered in short term recall but not so in long term recall .(Brandimote et al. 1992) found participants used visual coding in STM if given a visual task‚ as no verbal task took place visual encoding stayed instead of acoustic coding
