Sonify

Devices that “sonify” data have expanded beyond the well-known Geiger counter, which reveals radioactivity by clicking more rapidly as it gets closer to nuclear material. These devices appear in an array of settings, evaluating the structural integrity of large bridges, guiding the manipulation of surgical instruments during brain surgery, and more. Neuhoff, Kramer, and Wayand point out that sonification devices appear everywhere from anesthesiology stations to factory production-controls, stock-market trading floors, and data displays for the visually impaired. And, they say, the use of auditory displays will continue to escalate.

In a sonified interface, representations that are typically visual, such as graphs and icons, are turned into sound, that is, sonified, so that they can be interpreted in the auditory rather than the visual domain.

The idea developed with the “sonic level” was to sonify the angle relative to the horizontal axis using a virtual orchestra (an accordion, a guitar and drums).

A system to sonify network traffic thus allows us to monitor the network in a peripheral mode.

If the sample does not disperse during the shaking process, sonify the mixture in an ultrasonic bath for 30 min.

In fact, large-scale industrial applications require efficient transmission of energy and capacity in the acoustic generators to sonify large volumes.

Between washings, the sample is sonified, centrifuged and decanted.

To find the unique cells, I sonify the cells -- that is to subject them to sonic waves, which makes up a homgenous paste of them.
