We are now tracking research attention as it happens on Bluesky!

We have been picking up posts on the site since late Oct.

Our team is on Bluesky all day answering questions.

Let's get into it!

Using sound to understand protein sequence data: new sonification algorithms for protein sequences and multiple sequence alignments - BMC Bioinformatics Background The use of sound to represent sequence data—sonification—has great potential as an alternative and complement to visual representation, exploiting features of human psychoacoustic intuition...

By way of an introduction and to populate my feed, I'm posting my papers:
This was my first, published in BMC Bioinformatics, and looked at representing protein sequences using sound

Progressively degrading a beautiful song to emotionally show the progressive degradation of a beautiful planet.

The video and the sonification are so strongly emotional. They show the feeling of losing something so really precious. Congratulations, @sonifyed.bsky.social, very nice work.

Nice example of data #sonification explained
