Composing music using the Higgs boson LHC data
I discover it out late enough, but the project is fantastic!
On Wednesday 4th July 2012, scientists at CERN announced that they had found a Higgs-like particle after analysing results from the Large Hadron Collider.
After the announce, Domenico Vicinanzastarts another project: the ‘sonification’ of the data observer in the LHC
The Higgs sonification is an alternative representation of the scientific graph the ATLAS experiment presented on 4th July. […] The sonification algorithm we used offers the same qualitative and quantitative information contained in the graph , only translated into notes.
The first result was as follows:
The video was produced by Piotr Traczyk, who also plays the guitar in the ‘symphony’.
And Piotr also produced another video focused on the sonification of the Higgs boson data, this time with a metal flavour:

What can I say? Wonderful!
