Network data sonification
This post over at information aesthetics on the sonification of network data reminded me of a program I wrote for a class at UCSC taught by Cope. The output from my program was pretty annoying [I can’t seem to find any rendered audio example, only the raw .midi file]. soundtomind sounds a lot more interesting. You could basically have some ambient sounds going all the time at your work/home, and if there was a disturbance in the force, you would know instantly, but it wouldn’t irritate everyone else, in theory. Looking back at my lisp code inspired me to try VIM’s source to html script. Pretty damn cool. Run :let html_use_css = 1 followed by :source $VIM/syntax/2html.vim and another window appears with your exact syntax highlighting recreated in html/css. Here is the output for tcp-midi.lisp
