WHAT IS SONIFY SPECIES
Sonify species is a scientific project coming from the original idea of DNA of Music.
The portal aims to transmit basic scientific information while sonifying the unique and specific characteristics reported in the DNA of the organisms.
Spur Curiosity
encouraging/stimulating a desire for knowledge
Connecting Science with Art
playing the genetic code of a living being, because each organism has some “music” within
Access for ALL
thanks to the open data in BOLD systems, GBIF, and Wikipedia
The process, which translates DNA sequences into musical compositions, begins with an intricate method called individual mapping. This phase focuses on converting the genetic information of a single organism into a musical score, offering a novel way to appreciate biodiversity through the interplay of science and art.
