Sonifyd is sonification research exploring the relationship between visual and sound in order to create a functioning tool for communication, multimedia, audiovisual, visual art and music.
Woohun Joo is a visual designer, audiovisual artist, and sonification researcher who creates sound from abstract visual art and non-musical data. His projects mainly focus on how minimalistic visual art can be transferred to auditory domains and how his sound making processes can be conversely visualized. Joo’s work explores the potential of visual and sound design as an integrated art form for multi-sensory user experience and communication design. His research and audiovisual installation have been published at conferences such as ACM Audio Mostly, NIME, ICAD, and ICMC. He is also participating in the conferences as a paper reviewer.
Joo majored in graphic design at Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul, Korea. He worked professionally as a graphic designer in web, printing, UI/GUI, identity, and typeface design. He holds his Master’s degree in Digital+Media at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and an interdisciplinary PhD in sound and multimedia technology with affiliation to the Human-Centered Design program and the Center for Human-Computer Interaction (CHCI) at Virginia Tech. He is currently teaching at the School of Visual Arts at Penn State as an assistant teaching professor.
