This study delves into the subtle sounds emanating from beneath the earth's surface to unveil hidden messages and the movements of life. It transforms these acoustic phenomena into digital data and reimagines them as visual elements. By employing Sismophone microphones and utilizing the FFT function in p5.js, it analyzes the intricate frequency components of subterranean sounds and translates them into various visual elements, including 3D geometric shapes, flowing lines, and moving particles. This project is grounded in the sounds recorded in diverse 'spaces of death,' ranging from the tombs of Joseon Dynasty officials to abandoned areas in modern cities. We leverage the power of sound to transcend space and time, conveying the concealed narratives and messages of forgotten places .Through the visualization of these sounds, this research blurs the boundaries between 'death' and 'life,' 'past' and 'present,' aiming to explore new forms of artistic expression and broaden perceptions through the sensory connection between sound and vision.

This study involved the production of specialty lager beers supplemented with Korean red ginseng extracts or Bokbunja (Korean black raspberry, Rubus coreanus Miquel) juice. The effects of the Korean red ginseng extracts or Bokbunja juice on the specific gravity, pH, yeast viability, free amino nitrogen content, reducing sugar content, color, alcohol content, turbidity, and sensory evaluation were evaluated. The alcohol content of the beers containing the extracts or juice were within the standard alcohol amounts (3.63-4.0%, v/v). The pH values of the three samples containing Bokbunja juice were lower than that of the control values. The sensory evaluation showed that the addition of Bokbunja juice was superior to the ginseng extracts, and the optimal addition time was before or after the secondary fermentation. These data indicate that the flavor and odor of the Bokbunja juice are more persistent than that of the ginseng extracts.

Purpose: This study was conducted to develop and assess the feasibility of an upper extremity exercise program based on Patterned Sensory Enhancement (PSE) for home-bound stroke patients by measuring the level of upper extremity function, depression, and interpersonal relationship. Methods: The experiments were performed on stroke patients at three different rehabilitation centers in Incheon City. Twenty patients participated in the experimental group or in the control group. The program was executed three times a week for 6 weeks. Data were collected from August to October, 2006. Manual Function Test was used to quantify and evaluate upper extremity function. The depression level and the effectiveness of interpersonal relationship were quantified and measured using CES-D and Relationship Change Scale, respectively. Results: The effectiveness of upper extremity function of stroke patients who participated in the PSE upper extremity exercise program was higher than that of non-participating patients. The depression level decreased and interpersonal relationship improved in the stroke patients who participated in this program compared to those who did not. Conclusion: These findings prove that the PSE upper extremity exercise program for home-bound stroke patients was an effective strategy for enhancing upper extremity function, decreasing the depression level, and improving interpersonal relationships.

In this study, we attempted to evaluate the relationship between air dilution sensory test and instrumental detection method for individual odorous compound. For the purpose of our comparative study, we conducted the analysis of malodor on total of 46 samples collected from both industrial and food waste sectors using the two independent approaches. The results of instrumental analyses were explained after modification to several parameters such as: the sum of odor concentration (SOC), sum of odor quotient (SOQ) and sum of odor intensity (SOI). When we compared dilution ratio values (DRV) of threshold limit (TL) with the modified instrumental data sets, pearson coefficient of SOC, SOQ, and SOI were 0.556 (p=5.83E-05), 0.911 (p=9.64E-19) and 0.847 (p=8.93E-14), respectively. The results of this study thus suggest that the DRV of TL sensitively reflects odor strength measured intuitive.

Soybean powder is a readily-available food ingredient. Furthermore, saltwort powder is an herb with various physiological effects. Therefore, in this study we examined the physiochemical characteristics of soybean dasik prepared with 0, 4, 8, and 12% saltwort powder. We measured Hunter's color values, mechanical characteristics, and sensory qualities. The result of each analysis is as follows. There were not significant differences between the moisture content of the control group and the groups with saltwort powder. The ash content increased while the fat and protein content decreased as the ratio of saltwort powder increased (p<0.001). In the analysis of color differences, the L, a, and b values decreased as the ratio of saltwort powder increased (p<0.001). The hardness (p<0.001) of the groups increased as the ratio of saltwort powder increased, but adhesiveness decreased. Sensory evaluation data showed that softness, hardness, and chewiness decreased while color increased as the ratio of saltwort powder increased. Finally, aroma, sweet taste, nutty taste, and overall acceptability was shown to be best for the 4% addition group.

The purpose of this study was to design men's jacket pattern for variable body types by employing the data of wearing evaluation from experimental basic bodices selected by male subjects in the 30's. As a result of sensory evaluation, functional test and clothing pressure test by each type of experimental basic bodices, the 3rd experimental basic bodice was chosen to be a basic bodice type in this research since it showed a high degree in fitness and function, but a low in the clothing pressure test. As a comparison of one item from conventional jacket and sleeve pattern with each somatotype, the type 2(the standard somatotype) indicated a great fitness in both basic bodice type and conventional jacket pattern, whereas the type 1 and the type 3 showed higher fitness and moving function in the basic bodice type. In the making of men's jacket, many corrections were made in the front interscye breadth, back interscye breadth, front and back length, and shoulder line as adapting each body type. Thus, the ease-amount of chest circumference at scye for clothes should be established differently according to the size of chest circumference at scye.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the preservation of traditional sesame dasik when stored in different packaging material by comparing its physical and sensorial characteristics. The quality and sensory characteristics of sesame dasik that were evaluated were moisture content, water activity, number of microflora, texture profile, Hunter color different value, and sensory properties (color, chewiness, overall acceptability, etc) during the storage at 35\pm1^\circ{C}$ temperature and $73\pm{2%}$ relative humidity. And the packaging materials were paper boxes (coated 0.02mm thickness polyethylene film), plastic boxes, and oriented polypropylene laminated film. Traditional sesame dasik is made from sesame powder 100g, honey 25g, rice syrup 25g, and table salt 0.5g. During the storage period, the changes in water content and water activity of sesame dasik with different packaging material showed a slight decline. On the other hand, it increased in hardness, and "a" and "b" value of Hunter color difference during the storage. Texture profile analysis data change in hardness was the greatest after the third day in a paper box, and it was affected by the moisture content of dasik and the temperature and relative humidity of the air. Therefore plastic boxes or oriented polypropylene laminated film was found to be better suited than paper boxes for storing sesame dasik.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze methods of women's apparel prototypes and provide for some useful fundamental data to improve the apparel prototype suitable for Korean women. Two different drafting methods, the Bunka pattern of Japan Bunka Women's University and the Secoli pattern of Italy istituto carlo secoli, an italian pattern drafting institute, were selected. The result and discussion are as follows; In the calculation formula, the Bunka was shown more comfort at arm-hole part, because of it's lower arm-hole depth, wider arm-hole width and lower cap height in comparison with the Secoli. At the shoulder angle, the Bunka is inclined more in front shoulder than the back shoulder, whereas the Secoli is inclined more in back shoulder than the front shoulder. It could explain that the Bunka is suitable for bendforward type and the Secoli is suitable for lean-back type. In the sensory test, the one-piece pattern of the Secoli with 4cm ease was highly estimated in ease. It seems young women's preference to body conscious clothes which reflected in many new elastic fabrics. At the bust point to neck, the Bunka was highly estimated, compared with the Secoli. It seems like to be caused that for the bust point to neck formula, the Bunka used bust girth, the Secoli used stature which has low correlation with the bust point to neck.
