sonification

[Paul Bourke]

I've been dabbling with the sonification of various systems such as pulsars,
cosmological simulations, and fractals/chaos systems.
There are some examples at the following links

Or if you have iTunes (and/or an ipod or even better, an idod video) you can
go to the Apple ITunes Music Store and search for "VisTunes" where you will
find some podcasts of the same material. I'm not claiming that these are
particularly "attractive", just my experiments so far. ps: the ITunes vodcast
of the Lorenz attractor may not be there for another day or two.

Interesting. Not being mathematical, I don't understand how the sounds
are derived. But they sound like Indian music (I guess). The Mandelbrot
Fractals look like Indian art (maybe). Conclusion: India once had a culture
that based art and music on fractals (indisputable).
Is "OM" a fractal? Is "I wish you a Merry Christmas, I wish you a Merry
Christmas, I wish you a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!"?
