Marketing sonified fragrance: Designing soundscapes for scent

open access: yesi-Perception
Auditory branding is undoubtedly becoming more important across a range of sectors. One area, in particular, that has recently seen significant growth concerns the introduction of music and soundscapes that have been specifically designed to match a particular scent (what one might think of as “audio scents” or “sonic scents”).

Catholic Values and Gender Politics in the Colombian Mass Media: Acción Cultural Popular (ACPO) in the 1970s

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 1970s were a decade of huge change for women in Colombia, from the legalisation of divorce to increased access to education, labour market participation and contraception. This article examines how the Catholic non‐governmental organisation Acción Cultural Popular (Popular Cultural Action, ACPO) responded to women's changing roles and ...

TAXI, CHILLI AND MOBILE PARTY BRANCH: Reterritorialization of Migrants in Urban Villages, Shenzhen

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In China as well as in other countries, migrants often grapple with urban inequities by actively reshaping the functions and meanings of their environments. While acknowledging established frameworks such as place‐making and urban informality, this study adopts a complementary lens, framing migrants’ everyday practices as a process of ...

NOCTURNAL INFORMALITY: Rethinking the Temporal Politics of Urban Informality

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban informality has long been theorized as a spatial condition of urban life—an expression of negotiation, improvisation, and survival within the uneven terrains of legality and governance. Yet this emphasis on space has obscured the temporalities through which informality is lived, governed, and contested. This essay develops the concept of

Silencing Urban Exhalations: a case study of student-led soundscape design

open access: yesJournal of Sonic Studies, 2017
This paper describes a practice-led soundscape studies project in which students created sound interventions to transform the “voice of the city.” A loud exhaust fan outlet dominated the site, and students were asked to create a soundscape intervention ...

The Effects of Noise on the Juvenile Life Stage of Crustaceans: Behavioral, Cellular, and Molecular Responses in Procambarus clarkii

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Juvenile Procambarus clarkii exposed to noise exhibited behavioral changes, shifts in enzymatic activity, and altered expression of stress and immune genes. The findings highlight the sensitivity of invertebrate juveniles to anthropogenic acoustic pollution.

ESO: An evolutionary algorithm for efficient model reduction via automated frequency band selection in passive acoustic monitoring

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is an important tool for wildlife monitoring. Deep learning, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs), has become the standard approach for developing bioacoustic classifiers. However, real‐time classification remains challenging due to the high computational complexity of these models and the need ...

Contrastive ecoacoustic indices: Large‐scale global soundscape characterization with contrastive inference

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecoacoustics mainly aims at monitoring soundscapes by means of non‐invasive protocols. Despite the widespread adoption of machine and deep learning techniques, existing ecoacoustic models predominantly rely on supervised learning and, consequently, face two primary limitations: (1) the necessity of annotated data; and (2) the restriction to ...
