As a first approach to a class of students or another audience who are new to the sonification process, and also to digital tools, it is important to introduce some games and activities based on personal human-to-human communication. This will help break the ice within a group of students for them to understand the fundamental concepts of the sonification workflow, and create a positive and relaxed atmosphere that will help in the following steps. It also allows us to explain and apply the core concepts of a sonification system (it must be composed of one input data, one output sound, and a relation (protocol/mapping) between them). We can use the clapping as an output sound. Its rhythm can easily be modulated. Real instruments would be welcome.
