  abstract = {Many researchers have documented the significance of  hearing  over  seeing  in Arab culture. This study examines how cultural Arab traits such as the importance of the aural senses and the oral tradition influences digital methods of cultural preservation. The research focuses on the case of Al-Khor, a coastal city in northern Qatar. The key objective is to explore ways of building authentic soundscapes that portray Qatari culture and to demonstrate the results through a prototype of an augmented storybook featuring the sounds around the Al-Khor shoreline.},
