Sonification for fuse #468

Open samreid opened 5 years ago

samreid commented 5 years ago

In https://github.com/phetsims/circuit-construction-kit-common/issues/463#issuecomment-479663465 I said:

I'm wondering if it should be accompanied by a sound effect? Or will it be too odd if the sim only has sonification for 1 thing?

@kathy-phet replied:

I agree a sound would be nice. I think this will be sonified at some point, so perhaps hold off. @emily-phet - What do you think re sound for this one thing now or hold off?

@samreid @kathy-phet Would be good to loop Ashton and @jbphet into the conversation. What's the timeline for this? Can it wait until mid-April?

samreid commented 5 years ago

I have not been involved with the sonification of a simulation and not sure what all is involved in that design. But I am wondering about the possibility of playing a pre-recorded "pop" sound when the fuse is tripped.

OK if I add something like that to the simulation as a proof of concept? I don't want to step on any toes or hinder the overall sonification design process.

@samreid I'm currently traveling, and unfortunately don't have the bandwidth to mediate this. Carry on as you all see appropriate, no worries about stepping on toes. Sound is for everyone (to create and use). :)

Labeling for potential discussion for April 11 design meeting.

@kathy-phet said let's wait until we sonify the entire simulation.
