      To put it simply.
      Phonons, vibrate electrons (electricity) and the hz speed, is measured in light.
      Torus, vortex field is created by sound of a magnetic field to create plasma.
      Like the moon!!!!!!!! And the sun!!!!!!!!
      And god SAID let there be light.
      Planes run on compressed air (obviously).
      The elements table was one of magic, each element and it's petrification, to heal and nourish all, like magnetite, monazite, muscovite, zeolite, flourite, aluma....yet these are re-created in a lab, to kill all life, but same name.
      Flourine, is one of the DEADLY halogen group, yet we have flouride in water and toothpaste (salt anion)
      Forget the cosmos, it's fine, it is all life on earth that needs attention.

    The sonifications are awful. It's not that they're unpleasant, they're just inaccurate.
    The base tone they give as an example is a collection of tones given the "wobble" which is caused when you have multiple frequencies which differ slightly. If you're not even portraying an unchanging tone properly, your portrayal of scientific data such as light curves is effectively irrelevant. You're adding effects into the data which drastically muddies it.
    The level of muddiness you're adding to the sound is equivalent to taking a photo, duplicating it, shifting it slightly to one side, then overlaying to 2 offset images onto each other. The new image will appear blurry and reduce people's ability to understand the data.

      I hear what you're saying - but I believe the perception of "baseline" there may have been taken from an actual star example, in which there is some natural variation in the brightness from sunlight data (for example) over time which is sonified. So the wobble is a "baseline" behavior of a star "unchanged" against any more pronounced anomalies that may otherwise be made audible as well (solar flares, etc), even if a completely flat tone would more accurately exemplify a true "example concept."

      @@AdamAhujaMusic99 The same worble can be heard in the strictly ascending tone as well as the ascending then descending tone (triangle). It's just a bad way of introducing people to the concept. If you can't trust the most basic tone they can give you then you can't trust the data they are supposedly using.

      @@fireburner81 Thanks for the feedback. I showed the plots of the shapes as continuous lines, but what I should have done was shown that they are in fact a set of data points, and thus I should have plotted each point in the visual part. Each data point, whether they are forming the basic shapes or are the brightness measurements from the astronomical examples, is represented by a sound. Thus something that appears smooth and continous is actually a collection of sounds, and we found from testing that it was better to have the sound from each point slightly extend (overlap) into the sound of the next point, which I suspect is what you are hearing and thus referring to. In the future we'll use better visuals to explain this part of it.

      @@scottfleming8345 Interesting. So even a flat line would have a wobble because kicking off the next data point would create a slightly offset wave pattern creating interference. I can't say I've ever heard a solid tone interfere with itself, but I guess this is a first.
      I still think it's the sound equivalent of duplicating an image and offsetting it, although I haven't heard the sounds as discrete points, smoothed curves, or the mix you produced so don't know which sounds "better".
      I'm also coming at it from the perspective of scientific accuracy and not accessibility/pleasantness which is arguably just as important.
      Regardless, it's an interesting concept and I appreciate both your efforts and willingness to take feedback :-)
