This paper presents a novel mechanism that seeks to allow people to explore large collections of loosely structured audio. The approach provides a lightweight preview mechanism that allows people to explore the audio collection by providing supporting information (analogous to the use of tooltips in visual interfaces) We present an evaluation of these “preview cues” towards developing a design heuristics for their deployment.
