sonification

Scientific data sonification is a kind of application that can greatly benefit from the development of large distributed computing infrastructures like GRID. Data sonification is becoming one of the most promising analysis tools, since sounds can summarize significant amounts of information and can be characterized, stored and studied in a simpler and easier way with respect to other data representations (such as images, for example).

Even though the use of sonification is now clearly understood by the scientific community, its practical use has received limited attention so far because of the intensive computing usually required to produce sounds. With the development of computing GRIDS data sonification is now back to the public. >from *Beyond Einstein world wide webcast*.

To celebrate Einstein Year (World Year of Physics), some of the worlds leading physics laboratories are taking part in a 12 hour webcast to show public audiences the excitement of Einsteins life, science and legacy. The programme will be broadcast from locations including CERN, the European Particle Physics Laboratory and birthplace of the World Wide Web, on December 1st 2005.
