“The field of data sonification is commonly presented as being aligned with the goals of graphic and information design, but is rarely discussed in terms of more experimental approaches such as those of the invited speakers of this proposed colloquium, which seeks to present an alternative viewpoint of data sonification. The work of the invited speakers is not focused on strict representation of data or aiding in the understanding of complex data sets, but on looking at ways in which data is transformed through artistic practice.”
