Abstract
In this article we concentrate on perception of non-musical rhythm. The purpose of this study has been to find possible meanings related to simple auditory rhythms. Meanings were examined using semantic scales. 26 subjects rated nine different rhythm samples according to adjective pair scales. We also identify some preliminary design suggestions as to how rhythm can be used in sonification and discuss duration limitation when composing earcons.
