Materials and Music: Selective Imperfection as a Generative Framework for Analysis, Creativity and Discovery

Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.

Manufacturing Nostalgia in the Digital Age: A Foreverism Perspective

Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many scholars argue that we are experiencing the era of “retro”—nostalgia‐driven marketing and consumption phenomena reinforced by digital technologies. However, existing research lacks a critical analysis of nostalgia in contemporary markets and of how digital content, tools, and environments transform retro consumption experiences and alter ...

Passive Acoustic Identification of Social Groups in the Hainan Gibbon

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Passive acoustic monitoring offers a non‐invasive means of assessing visually hard‐to‐survey wildlife species with distinctive vocalizations. We evaluated whether deep learning can identify Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus) social groups from their calls.

The influence of motion quality on responses towards video playback stimuli

Biology Open, 2015
Visual motion, a critical cue in communication, can be manipulated and studied using video playback methods. A primary concern for the video playback researcher is the degree to which objects presented on video appear natural to the non-human subject ...

The Influence of Audio Information Manipulation on the Perceived Atmosphere in Telepresence Systems for Remote Work

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
Remote work, which enables employees to work from home, has emerged as a prominent working style in recent years. However, unlike traditional office environments where the ‘atmosphere of the space’ is naturally shared, remote work relies on screen‐based communication, making it challenging to convey this atmosphere.

Optimizing the Effectiveness of Captioned Viewing for Incidental Second Language Vocabulary Learning: The Effects of Repeated Viewing and Reading Fluency

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined the effects of repeated viewing and reading fluency on incidental second language vocabulary acquisition through captioned video exposure. A total of 149 Japanese EFL learners watched a short animation with or without captions, varying in the number of repetitions (once, twice, or three times).

“Disciplinary Writing Is Like Playing with Legos”: Exploring a Multilingual International Student's Navigating Science Writing

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores the experiences of an undergraduate multilingual international student in becoming a science writer at a large public university. Taking the lenses of identity and investment, language socialization and multiliteracies, we address the question: How does a college‐aged multilingual science student navigate disciplinary ...

Nocturnal playback experiments: The response of two European species of birds to singing of foreign male at night.

PLoS ONE
Recent studies have shown that nocturnal singing in diurnal birds is a common phenomenon, however, the understanding of the mechanisms, functions and consequences of this behaviour has been lacking.
