HOW THE BRAIN WORKS

BTC over the course of the past year.

- Plucky ethereal synth is the price of BTC at close.

- Bassline is the absolute value of change - a kind of basic measure of volatility. If the price goes up or down significantly, the pitch of the bass rises.

- The babbling noisy thing in the background is volume of trade.

The drum track is nothing but a preset - no relation to the data. (still working on finding a good way to do drum rhythms with data)

A NASA satellite image reveals the beauty created when a big river meets an even bigger ocean outside the Rio de la Plata. We represent this beauty in the form of music, by mathematically translating hidden layers of “ocean color” reflectance data across a transect outbound from the large estuary. The patterns you hear in the music are the same patterns that enable scientists to unravel the microscopic composition of the ocean from space.
 
The song is the same data set repeated four times. In each repetition, a different color takes center stage and performs a solo of sorts while the other colors provide background. In the first part, blue light (Rrs-443 and Rrs-469) rapidly pick an acoustic guitar, while green light (harp) and red light (bass) provide a rhythmic backing. In the second part, blue takes a back seat and red (Rrs-667) takes its turn thumping out a bass solo. In the third part, green light (Rrs-547 and Rrs-555) shines. The result is a semi-subjective interpretation of objective data.
