Workshop - Science By Ear III

An Interdisciplinary Sonification Workshop

Date: September 3-5, 2014


Location: IEM Graz, Inffeldgasse 10/III

This workshop will bring together international experts in the field of sonification with distinguished scientists from climate science. Relevant sonification tools and example data sets will be discussed. Afterwards, participants will work in interdisciplinary teams of sonification experts, data scientists, and audio programmers.The hack session will entail the development of two tasks that include sonification strategies and experimentation with the SysSon platform via iterative coding. Researchers from Wegener Center for Climate and Global Change will have the opportunity to make firsthand experiences with SysSon platform for research questions from their fields; sonification experts will receive valuable feedback on their sonification design approaches. Furthermore, we hope to gain insights on interdisciplinary collaborative approaches.

Results are discussed in this paper.
