Meandering Sound

Martin Schneider: Vignette Explorer (2010)


About

In this lecture we will look at sound signals as meandering curves in time.

  • Mathematical Functions — in the 1st part, we will learn how to create curves using mathematical functions.
  • Curves of Sound — in the 2nd part, we will learn how to make audible curves in time and space.

Goals

  • Basics of mathematical functions
  • Polar coordinates
  • Harmonic synthesizer
  • Sound synthesis in Processing

The Meandering Mind


About

In this lecture we will have look at electric, mechanic, and biological systems and how their trajectories can be analyzed using data visualisation and sonification.

Goals

  • motiongrams and motionmaps
  • working with EEG, EKG, EMG data
  • quantified self
