Sonification Sandbox

The Sonification Sandbox is a project of the Psychology Department's Sonification Lab at Georgia Institute of Technology, overseen by Bruce Walker, PhD. Motivated by a need for a simple, multi-platform, multi-purpose toolkit for sonifying data, the Sonification Sandbox allows the user to map data to multiple auditory parameters and add context using a graphical interface.

Data can be imported from CSV files (which can be created in MS Excel, for example), and manipulated/edited in a spreadsheet. The mapping between the data and the visual and auditory graphs can be changed in many ways. Visual and auditory renderings of the data are available, and the visual and auditory graphs can be exported as images, data files, audio files, and even multimodal QuickTime movie files, in a range of file formats.
