How does data sonification from black holes and other cosmic phenomena enhance our ability to interpret high-energy astrophysical events beyond traditional visual methods?
Mr tyson and Mr. Nice, will you ever do a show in the UK? My family and I would definitely attend. I look forward to your response. Thank you and kind regards
I am not versed in this science at all just have a interest because of Sci-Fi movies but my answer, What would be measurement? I can't really explain why I say this, but my mind is trying to wrap my head around it and it is answering with measurements, especially with the fact its measured in sound from light. Trying to gain understanding.
i used to have a program that did this, based on pixel brightness and color playing the picture like a waterfall chart, never used it to scan a galaxy though, who knew this would become a field of science!
Data sonification of black holes and other cosmic phenomena offers a unique way to interpret high-energy astrophysical events by translating complex data into audible soundscapes. This method allows scientists to perceive patterns, frequencies, and variations that might be difficult to detect through visual analysis alone. By converting signals such as gravitational waves, X-ray emissions, or radio waves into sound, researchers can better explore the dynamics of black holes, star collisions, and other cosmic events. This auditory approach complements traditional visual methods, offering new perspectives and insights into the underlying processes of the universe.
i disagree, I like Chuck, but often find his jokes get in the way as soon as the meat of an explanation is told.. often cuts off the guest to get quips in.
i am a changed man - when i first tuned in to these videos, i did not like chuck - i didn't "get" him; i just thought he was annoying. now, i enjoy his quips, and, i really like his genuine curiosity and willingness to learn
I'm the opposite I knew of him for years but wondered how he'd fit in this show as a comedian.. his genuine interest,quick wit and love of science is awesome to see✌🏾
Similarly i used to truly dislike Dr Tyson...all id ever seen of him was small clips of him talking and i swear they ALWAYS clipped it just right to where he looked condescending and rude....so glad i found star talk for 1 to change my impressions of him but even more so bc well this talk show is awesome right?!?! 😂
Thank you, Robert Williams, who was the Director of the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in 1995, and used his discretionary time to point Hubble at nothing. Good Job!!
About 12 years ago, I completed a Music and Sound Technology degree, and for my dissertation, I chose the subject of Sonification. It was awesome to learn about! I decided to map sound to datasets taken from the Ulysses mission, whose primary mission was to orbit the Sun. One dataset I mapped was entirely represented as white noise; as the dataset cycled through the white noise, all that could be heard was the distinctive sound of breathing. It was so cool! Being a bit poetic with the data, I wrote in my dissertation, "It's like I can hear the universe breathing." Writing the dissertation and building the program to translate the data into sound was a lot of fun!
@@The.BansheeRose Hey, so I replied to this the other day, but I added links to my SoundCloud and it appears the comment may have been deleted. So I have uploaded two Sonifications from the project to my RUclips channel. Info about each one is in the description. Feel free to check them out. :)
Joe Rogan with Terrance Howard led me to Eric W which I couldn’t get myself to subscribe, so then I was led to Star talk and I’ve been watching all evening. No emotional political stuff, just physics that I don’t understand but is so cool so I subscribed hoping to increase knowledge!
0:09 But the real question is ‘Do chairs exist?’ 🪑 The Sounds of Space are hauntingly beautiful…Or are they?! _Music starts playing_ 🎶 Always love a StarTalk Live! ✨
Great video 🎉 Would you please make some 'shorts' with each 🎶 'sound of universe ✨️ '? (for people to share... maybe will get them to watch the whole episode, too) 😊 The universe is so beautiful, awe-some research, Kim🎶🌌. Thank you all 🎉😊
Just a correction. On Star Trek: The Next Generation, Geordi La Forge didn't lose his sight. He was born blind, so he never had it. It wasn't until he got the visor that he was able to see.
He does not actually say that though. You are referring to just before 21:00 - thanks for not including the time.... and all he said is that he was "previously blind" which is in fact the case for anyone who is born blind, then acquires sight
This is so cool to see and HEAR! The universe is so amazing and so deep and complex. Y'all are funny and insightful and brilliant. Appreciate you Chuck, Neil, and Kimberly on your great insights and great sense of humor.
Well, it's a choice. I found Startalk because space have fascinated me since I was a kid, but the government, politics and conspiracy theories.. not so much, no.
Arbitrarily assigning a sound to a wavelength of the electro-magneic spectrum is an interesting concept and a great new tool; however, even high school physics teaches that there is NO sound propagation through a vacuum - which space is, which I think should have been emphasized.
Wow. I really love this episode. I never knew this was a thing and I'm absolutely in love with this. I need to go and find ALL the space data sonifications now!
Theory of universe: Universe is made from non observable called it is zero. When zero approach with one, an observable universe will be created. The process zero approach to one is reversible. The journey of zero approach to one is called time. The things created during this journey may be different size, shape and magnitude, speed, property.
Awesome episode and Kimberly is a great guest. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to her vast knowledge and the way she explained things. Really fascinating stuff.
This is cute. But I suggest they pick a certain orientation for the sound to be played. The way they did the first image bottom to top, then the second image left to right doesn't really make sense. Because then you'll always have to explain the orientation the sound is being played. My interpretation is that this is supposed to be similar to a sonar for photographs and light exposure. So why not "play" the sound from the epicenter (middle) put to the fringes of the images. I feel like it would help create a "traveling" sensation through the data, and also I can picture my mind creating the image as though my eyes were traveling through a tunnel of information that way. Left/right up/down seems a little too flat of a way to convey this information. What yall think?
I like how dark matter and dark energy are discussed in such a matter of fact way, when they are theoretical and their existence is being brought into question more now than ever. Also, which notes in the musical scale are assigned to which wavelengths and why?
A musician would say that the music is made using only notes of a determined tone. They don't use all the 12 notes to create this sound, the result would not be nice to hear, but if we use only notes of a determinate tone, the result is harmonious.
“It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure.” ― Albert Einstein
I have never laughed at an episode of anything, so hard in my life! Chuck was looking from Neal's head, to the floor, and then to the crowd. I'm dying!
Suddenly a question arises. When matter and anti-matter come together you get pure energy. If the universe implodes and everything comes back together, matter and anti-matter also come back together, that could release so much energy that it would cause another big bang (everything starts over again?)
Mike Oldfield made an album “The Songs of Distant Earth”. The very first track is “Supernova”. He is trying to make an album about the evolution of Earth, and later humanity…
I liked the wavelength indicator added to the graphic that rolled up the page of the black hole field image. Looking for the wavelength indicating spike go up over different colored black holes helped me pick out the different sounds in the auditory feed; which sounded cool but was too cacaphonis to pick out specific tones without the visual aid.

The shows are so much more entertaining when chuck nice joins the team 🎉
Chuck is the seasoning in my Startalk stew.
Maybe because he is mainly an Entertainer.
he's very quick with the quips and manages to not be annoying.

Grammar: 🥔/10
I wasn't a fan at the start too, but he contributes a lot and clearly knows a lot more than I do at this point!
I think a big part of NDT’s genius is knowing the value humor plays in imparting knowledge, by making it more enjoyable.

@@The.BansheeRose It really was. Nice seeing a whole StarTalk ep about this subject.
Sounds awesome you should put it online i would love to hear it.

He had taken a wrong turn in life back then but now he has moved on…
This is simply amazing. Space is just scary and wonderful at the same time

Where should we host our next StarTalk Live! event? Drop the name of your city & country and who knows, we may pay it a visit!
Stockholm, Sweden!
Youngstown, USA
😀Cluj-Napoca/România!
Munich, Germany 😊
Vancouver, Canada
I don’t know if I’m the only one that has noticed but Neil gave his jacket to Kimberly so she wouldn’t be cold. Such a gentleman🙂
Or because someone thought that she was not dressed appropriately for the situation.......
The oldest chat up line in the science book 😊❤😊
@@jacklbrt If anyone thought that, they are really weird.
a gentle man has to be asked, we think alot.
@@jacklbrt like what
im so happy that chuck is back!!
0:09 But the real question is ‘Do chairs exist?’ 🪑
The Sounds of Space are hauntingly beautiful…Or are they?! _Music starts playing_ 🎶
Always love a StarTalk Live! ✨
I can still remember watching that hour-long chair-reality dissertation. So good.
Vsauce music starts playing 😀 Exactly what I thought of
This was by far the best episode yet. I have seen every single episode. Well done 🎉
Making albums of these would make a great source of funding some of the research.
2,000,000 seconds is 23 days, 3 hours, 33 minutes and 20 seconds.
You're welcome.
This is an amazing installment. The information from Kim, Neil's insight, and Chuck's jokes are all 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
i love it when the star talks
Great episode! Fun, fascinating and visuals. Thanks Neil, Kimberly, Chuck and crew!
❤️🧡💛💚💙🩵💜
This was a great conversation Kimberly Arcand. I look forward to her returning to Star Talk.
That was delightful. I enjoyed every photon and sound wave💜🌌
Omg this is just an amazing star talk, way to go guys.
Ohh my ohh my this was just amazing, entertaining and a leaning experience. LOVED IT!
Great video 🎉 Would you please make some 'shorts' with each 🎶 'sound of universe ✨️ '? (for people to share... maybe will get them to watch the whole episode, too) 😊 The universe is so beautiful, awe-some research, Kim🎶🌌. Thank you all 🎉😊

@@Nate-.- 20:33 mate.
@omgblastbeatslol i just said that mate.
Should’ve introduced him as Lord Nice 1:47
LOL
I agree 💯
Barfing up protons should be a children's book. Chuck should write it with Neil being the science editor.
👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Couldn't imagine the arduous journey Kimberly would have had to undertake to make sense of all that data through sound. Awesome!!
one of the things nice about Tyson's videos is he leaves me smiling.
So long needed. Star Talk genus. WoW 👀
This is so cool to see and HEAR! The universe is so amazing and so deep and complex. Y'all are funny and insightful and brilliant. Appreciate you Chuck, Neil, and Kimberly on your great insights and great sense of humor.
Chuck is the best. Dude loves his country and so do I.
This is what people should be watching. Not videos on how the government is controlling weather.
Well, it's a choice. I found Startalk because space have fascinated me since I was a kid, but the government, politics and conspiracy theories.. not so much, no.
Thank you. Seriously, just thank you for telling me about this amazing field of scientific study.
The speech at the end was beautiful

one of the best videos i ever watched on the internet
Thank you universe finally they bring my favourite subject.
Kimberly can get it
i remember when you had Kim on a regular star talk episode. sonification.. who knew! Chuck-"That is my jam!"
Theory of universe:
Universe is made from non observable called it is zero. When zero approach with one, an observable universe will be created. The process zero approach to one is reversible.
The journey of zero approach to one is called time. The things created during this journey may be different size, shape and magnitude, speed, property.
Chuck is a must!
I didn't want the conversation to end
My time might have passed, but thank you, Neil. I'll keep looking up.
Awesome episode and Kimberly is a great guest. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to her vast knowledge and the way she explained things. Really fascinating stuff.
Stars talk, or sing, in StarTalk. That's a very fitting subject for the show.
I didn't think I would like this particular show. I WAS WRONG!!!!!!!!! Great Show.
Awesome summary speech!
My mind is blown!
"I gotta go!"
This is cute. But I suggest they pick a certain orientation for the sound to be played. The way they did the first image bottom to top, then the second image left to right doesn't really make sense. Because then you'll always have to explain the orientation the sound is being played.

As a layhuman + science lover + artist + synesthete this SO inspiring 🙏🤍

“100 years from now ... back in 2024 we were practically blind" ! 👏👍
NEIL'S SOUNDWAVES ARE SO BLISS FOR THE EARS!!
"Astronomy runs on programming" love that quote from Kim
Wow…just wow!!! Beautiful music from our Universe!!
A musician would say that the music is made using only notes of a determined tone. They don't use all the 12 notes to create this sound, the result would not be nice to hear, but if we use only notes of a determinate tone, the result is harmonious.

Always a great episode when Neil has guests over to listen to him answer his own questions
That's funny and seemingly valid. For reasons like you stated I find Neil to be an acquired taste.
Maybe it's the herb, but this episode is awesome! I am channeling Carl Sagan right now. Thank you!
"Everyone close your eyes" *does so... confused: hears beach sounds...opens eyes* Ah! Beach commercial! Funny.
*skips commercial: closes eyes again...wait...is that ... more... beach sounds?¡! Peaks again* 😂
Best commercial break timing ever. Lol 🎉
this is like describing the size of an apple by playing a major chord, brilliant!
you should title this as a live event with various topics. i thought it was going to be about one thing the whole time
in case anyone was curious (and didn't want to bother pulling out a calculator), 2 million seconds is 23d 3h 33m 20s
I am so for this #STARTREK forever 😂
great episode guys! Keep looking up!
1:05:52 time to loop this and play on repeat
1:08:00 You are now being hypnotized 😵💫
I have never laughed at an episode of anything, so hard in my life! Chuck was looking from Neal's head, to the floor, and then to the crowd. I'm dying!
Best duo chuck and neil💀💀💀💀
going to sleep is my fav thing ever. so good.
Fire 🔥 event/ interview. i LOVE what you guys are doing.
Chuck is awesome!!! Love that guy as co host!
What an amazing episode
If I had a science teacher that looked like her... I still would have failed.
😂😂😂
@@RobertWrayGuitarnice pair of 😮
The black hole scan sounds just like some of the music from the Mass Effect series. It's sooo fitting case Mass Effect is a space game. ❤❤❤
Where can we find these sounds? Are there more of them on a RUclips channel or website?
These videos are always great!
Wonderful episode!
I heard Gas Bath and I immediately clenched and prayed Chuck didn't go down that road lol, glad he has limits and restraint :P :P
LMFAOOOOOO that's hilarious

If the universe implodes and everything comes back together, matter and anti-matter also come back together, that could release so much energy that it would cause another big bang (everything starts over again?)
Yooo I would love to hear the answer to this question. Fascinating
I think this is the big bounce hypothesis?
I friggen LOVE science!!!
Chuckization of the show...visualize and sonifies the show
Listen Aespa - Supernova
As an audio engineer that was cool to hear in the "pocket".
The music of the stars indeed!
brought a tear to my eye💝
Mike Oldfield made an album “The Songs of Distant Earth”. The very first track is “Supernova”. He is trying to make an album about the evolution of Earth, and later humanity…
Chuck is the Neil Degrasse of Astro comedy… lighting fast comebacks!!! 😂😂
21:50 CHUCK IS THE ONLY 1 WHO SMOKES MARIJUANA??!?!??! wow, chuck, this whole time i've thought pre-show you AND neil were smoking a bowl!!
Lol
It breaks my heart that I will never be able to get on a spaceship and explore the universe.
Amazing as always!!!👌👌
2 million seconds sound so much better for picture exposure than three and a third weeks!
Come to London!
I listened to the worm whole image at least 5 times!
How did you know to come up, with the phase: invisible light?
I liked the wavelength indicator added to the graphic that rolled up the page of the black hole field image.

The most wondrous and beautiful thing ever!
Thank you.
I agree- she's gorgeous.
As a musician, I found this absolutely fascinating! Moving, really. Inspiring. Thank you so much for this!
The universe is a music box.
The box is a universe music
the universe, it siiings to meeee
There are trillions of musicians in the world, so find the conductor of this symphony orchestra who can provide answers to us humans.😂❤🎉
SO FREAKIN COOOOOL!
Kimberly Arcand is gorgeous
