• Resumen

  • It might be suggested that composition and sonic information design are fundamentally different. However, some academic commentators and composers have explored the intersection between these disciplines. The authors presented one such work, Eonsounds: Fiamignano Gorge, at International Community of Auditory Display 2017. We argue that analysis of the aesthetic and informational choices in such hybrid works is essential to the development of sonic information design, with implications for the emergence of sonic information design as a subtype of human factors design. By acknowledging the relationship between aesthetics and information presentation, sound designers may develop designs that are safer and more user-friendly.
