CARISMA (Canadian Array for Realtime Investigations of Magnetic Activity)
Visualizing the immaterials and invisibles is a fascinating topic. This project turns an scientific data, a radio array captured at 20Hz into audio – “the tweeting and rumbles caused by incoming solar wind”, “a geo-magnetic storm occurring in the Earth’s upper atmosphere”.
They did both data sonification ( which interests me a lot) and sound visualization beautifully.
And the universe, universe, universe…
