Examples of Data-to-Music
The Auditory Displays below relate to Heart Rate Variability and Heart Rate. The audio files, with musical characteristics, were created from data to music mapping algorithms I designed. You can use some the algorithms at musicalgorithms.org.
In the first three examples, you will the same melody derived from data with slightly different accompaniments. The first example is the more simple, with two voices. The second example has three voices. The third example uses more timbres. Goal: listen for tension in the music between markers 6.5 and 12.5. These are areas where the heart rate variability is low and you would want to notice this in the data. Can you hear the warning signs?
The fourth example, related to heart rate will be uploaded soon.
