Abstract

![CDATA[The Data Farms sonification took the form of an immersive spatial audio application intended for use on a mobile device with headphones. Four or five users would carry their devices into an installation setting defined by a central marker. As they moved around this space, their locations would generate sonic ‘events’ based on real data and the probabilities of these events occurring in actual data centres. By default, these events were not visually depicted so that users could take an exploratory approach, however they could choose to display on their devices a text transcript describing the triggered events.]]
