Don't look into the sun
The spatial sound installation don't look into the sun deals with the sonification of solar activity. Real-time measurement data of the sun – of solar winds and
coronal mass ejections is translated into sound. The installation is an attempt to make
the sun acoustically audible. By observing the image data of NASA
satellites, the movements of solar flares are analysed. The data values modulate given
parameters of sound and generate a dynamic spatial experience. In the
exhibition space the sound is heard from a self built suspended metal construction in the
shape of an Icosahedron with an omnidirectional 12 channel sound system.
