Use basis function expansions to sonify 2D and 3D galaxy data
- Code used to sonify the Hubble Ultra Deep Field galaxies and N-body simulation (run in ChaNGa by Jason Hunt) as seen in our mini documentary is in the documentary directory
- Code developed leading up to the Edinburgh Science Festival is in the science festival directory
- Most up-to-date code is in the survey mapping directory. This directory contains code for each of the mappings used in our survey, accessible here. The data that we use are SDSS images from GalaxyZoo, downloaded from here
- Expansion code is based on FLEX pipeline by Ananya Ganapathy and Mike Petersen
- add documentation
- clean up code
- advance to 3D!
- Consider both star particles and dark matter - ask fun questions like what does a bar forming sound like in baryonic and in dark matter?
- There will be more choices to make here on how to do the mapping
- How do we condense the dimensions further to make it easier to hear differences?
