Sonifying Extremes: Creating Immersive Auditory Experiences through Data Sonification, Creative Practice, and Climate Awareness
Event description
Sonifying Extremes explores the intersection of data sonification and creative practice, interrogating how the acoustic signatures of underwater and terrestrial environments can be transformed into immersive auditory and musical experiences. Through converting ecological data sets from the depths of the Arctic Ocean to the Californian Wildfires, Sonifying Extremes highlights the hidden patterns and relationships within our ecosystems; making the unseen and unheard audible, advocating for climate awareness. Through highlighting my research as a fellow at UC San Diego’s Qualcomm Institute and Scripps Institution of Oceanography, this presentation will focus on the methodologies, case studies, and the transformative potential of data sonification in shaping environmental awareness and driving conservation initiatives.
