- Abstract: 200-500 words
- The SOLS project, in short for SOLar System, aims to deliver a platform to collect and show the various sounds of the Solar System that are hidden from us due to our hearing limitations. These frequencies vary from magnetic interactions to atmospheric sound samples, that placed all together create a better understanding of a planets activity.
The first part of the paper goes into detail about the frequencies and there origins, describing the insturments used aboard the probe and how the frequency was collected and the events or anomalies it encountered during its mission.
The second part of the paper is dedicated to the objectives the SOLS projects wants to fufill. These objectives are two: 1) The creation of a platform capable of putting together all audio samples/frequencies that originate from true, reliable sources and display these unknown sounds to the public. 2) Join the audio reactive visualization with the educational and cultural context in a exhibition format.
The final part of the paper goes into detail about the audio visualization itself, documenting the inspiring projects that lead to the design of SOLS and the programming/modelling procedures used.
