While doing field work in the Arctic, University of Washington doctoral candidate Judy Twedt could see the impact of sea level rise, carbon emissions and rapidly disappearing sea ice firsthand. But communicating the urgency of that data to people outside the bubble of the scientific world remained a struggle.
She found the answer in music.
Twedt sonifies climate data — basically, she makes iconic or meaningful data sets audible by translating each data point into a note. When CO2 rises on a graph curve, the notes react by becoming high and screechy. As sea ice disappears, one hand replicates the sound of its diminishment by dipping into the low register of a piano while the other replicates a twinkling pattern that replicates repeating, shifting seasons.
By using music's unique ability to imprint on the human brain, Twedt's result is a sonic map that can help us understand how climate change is upending our world, just by listening.

As I just stated in another post, I’m not particularly impressed with this species any longer.
Pointless.
Seriously, who makes up this crap?
Her music is based on fake, intentionally inflated charts.
Scientists acknowledge key errors in study of how fast the oceans are warming
https://www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/energy-environment/2018/11/14/scientists-acknowledge-key-errors-study-how-fast-oceans-are-warming/
A major study claimed the oceans were warming much faster than previously thought. But researchers now say they can’t necessarily make that claim.

Climate change not as threatening to planet as previously thought, new research suggests

I remember seeing a tv show about someone who did this with DNA sequences; it may have been Joel Sternheimer, and it was very interesting music:

> Judy Twedt could see the impact of sea level rise
So, she claims she could tell the difference if her boyfriend used an “enhancer” and grew from 7mm to 8mm. (Assuming she has a boyfriend). I’m sure she could tell the difference between him and the average penis length, but I doubt she could “see the impact” of adding 1mm.
The Goebbelsian climate change cult needs to sell alarmism.
No wonder music would be discovered to sell it.
I believe these are scenes from Portlandia.
I’ve never heard of that before, but I’m visiting YT for a looky-loo.
She decided which notes made what response to what particular climate data change.
That was not “translating” climate change to music, but her manipulating music for a climate change agenda.
Sweet! They should have played “Down Under” when it went thru Australia...
