Translations:What is sonification/9/en

According to the use of the sonification system (to analyze or to monitor a certain phenomena) we distinguish two “modes”: 1) in real-time (to monitor) - a stream of data is sonifed instantly and a sound is produced to display the value and behavior of the data in that particular moment; 2) “ a posteriori” (to analyze) - time-series sonification of a set of pre-recorded data is converted into an audio file that displays the values and behavior of the data over the period of time covered by the time-series. These two methods are not mutually exclusive and can eventually display the same sounds.The difference is that in “a posteriori”, as the sound is produced after the events that originated the data happened, the parameters of the final piece can be adapted, i.e.the total duration. In a real-time case, you can control the time resolution: that is the time interval at which the sound can change and is played.
