I was thinking that maybe "sound design" might not be the right way
to call it, since it can be directly associated with film, if I'm not
mistaken, it was Ben Burtt and Walter Murch who came up with the
"sound design" term. And they work within the film industry.

yea, it's been like that since 2003. i think bazo got married.

It's nice to hear someone else who is interested in this area -
having spent several years of my life doing a PhD thesis on sound, I
have a lot to say on the subject, so I'll keep it brief!
Personally, I don't believe sound design, as a discipline, gets the
recognition it deserves. From my experie

one of the things that I find most different with sound as an
interactive element is the way it is experienced in relation to
itself.. its waaay relative

Hey Leonardo,Do read it, it is very good. It is only one page; but,
everything on that one page is right on.
I could ramble on for days about how I would use sound in exactly the manner

I will give you this. It should be a subtle embellishment that complements

Yes, I recommend the Chion text too! I referred to it often in a course on
