How does data sonification from black holes and other cosmic phenomena enhance our ability to interpret high-energy astrophysical events beyond traditional visual methods?
Mr tyson and Mr. Nice, will you ever do a show in the UK? My family and I would definitely attend. I look forward to your response. Thank you and kind regards
I am not versed in this science at all just have a interest because of Sci-Fi movies but my answer, What would be measurement? I can't really explain why I say this, but my mind is trying to wrap my head around it and it is answering with measurements, especially with the fact its measured in sound from light. Trying to gain understanding.
i used to have a program that did this, based on pixel brightness and color playing the picture like a waterfall chart, never used it to scan a galaxy though, who knew this would become a field of science!
Data sonification of black holes and other cosmic phenomena offers a unique way to interpret high-energy astrophysical events by translating complex data into audible soundscapes. This method allows scientists to perceive patterns, frequencies, and variations that might be difficult to detect through visual analysis alone. By converting signals such as gravitational waves, X-ray emissions, or radio waves into sound, researchers can better explore the dynamics of black holes, star collisions, and other cosmic events. This auditory approach complements traditional visual methods, offering new perspectives and insights into the underlying processes of the universe.
i disagree, I like Chuck, but often find his jokes get in the way as soon as the meat of an explanation is told.. often cuts off the guest to get quips in.
i am a changed man - when i first tuned in to these videos, i did not like chuck - i didn't "get" him; i just thought he was annoying. now, i enjoy his quips, and, i really like his genuine curiosity and willingness to learn
I'm the opposite I knew of him for years but wondered how he'd fit in this show as a comedian.. his genuine interest,quick wit and love of science is awesome to see✌🏾
Similarly i used to truly dislike Dr Tyson...all id ever seen of him was small clips of him talking and i swear they ALWAYS clipped it just right to where he looked condescending and rude....so glad i found star talk for 1 to change my impressions of him but even more so bc well this talk show is awesome right?!?! 😂
About 12 years ago, I completed a Music and Sound Technology degree, and for my dissertation, I chose the subject of Sonification. It was awesome to learn about! I decided to map sound to datasets taken from the Ulysses mission, whose primary mission was to orbit the Sun. One dataset I mapped was entirely represented as white noise; as the dataset cycled through the white noise, all that could be heard was the distinctive sound of breathing. It was so cool! Being a bit poetic with the data, I wrote in my dissertation, "It's like I can hear the universe breathing." Writing the dissertation and building the program to translate the data into sound was a lot of fun!
@@The.BansheeRose Hey, so I replied to this the other day, but I added links to my SoundCloud and it appears the comment may have been deleted. So I have uploaded two Sonifications from the project to my UA-cam channel. Info about each one is in the description. Feel free to check them out. :)
Thank you, Robert Williams, who was the Director of the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in 1995, and used his discretionary time to point Hubble at nothing. Good Job!!
0:09 But the real question is ‘Do chairs exist?’ 🪑 The Sounds of Space are hauntingly beautiful…Or are they?! _Music starts playing_ 🎶 Always love a StarTalk Live! ✨
Well, it's a choice. I found Startalk because space have fascinated me since I was a kid, but the government, politics and conspiracy theories.. not so much, no.
Joe Rogan with Terrance Howard led me to Eric W which I couldn’t get myself to subscribe, so then I was led to Star talk and I’ve been watching all evening. No emotional political stuff, just physics that I don’t understand but is so cool so I subscribed hoping to increase knowledge!
I like how dark matter and dark energy are discussed in such a matter of fact way, when they are theoretical and their existence is being brought into question more now than ever. Also, which notes in the musical scale are assigned to which wavelengths and why?
Arbitrarily assigning a sound to a wavelength of the electro-magneic spectrum is an interesting concept and a great new tool; however, even high school physics teaches that there is NO sound propagation through a vacuum - which space is, which I think should have been emphasized.
This is cute. But I suggest they pick a certain orientation for the sound to be played. The way they did the first image bottom to top, then the second image left to right doesn't really make sense. Because then you'll always have to explain the orientation the sound is being played. My interpretation is that this is supposed to be similar to a sonar for photographs and light exposure. So why not "play" the sound from the epicenter (middle) put to the fringes of the images. I feel like it would help create a "traveling" sensation through the data, and also I can picture my mind creating the image as though my eyes were traveling through a tunnel of information that way. Left/right up/down seems a little too flat of a way to convey this information. What yall think?
This is so cool to see and HEAR! The universe is so amazing and so deep and complex. Y'all are funny and insightful and brilliant. Appreciate you Chuck, Neil, and Kimberly on your great insights and great sense of humor.
“And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.” (Surah Adh-Dhariyat 51:47 Holy Quran) • This verse is interpreted by many as an indication of the expanding universe, which aligns with modern scientific observations.
Hot damn, I'm glad I saw this. Didn't know "data sonification" was the name for what I loved as a muso. When my guitars started to degrade (muso, can't afford a good case let's be honest), I found there were interpretations of what each planet sounds like and tried making music around that. Space Rock isn't just a genre anymore
Great video 🎉 Would you please make some 'shorts' with each 🎶 'sound of universe ✨️ '? (for people to share... maybe will get them to watch the whole episode, too) 😊 The universe is so beautiful, awe-some research, Kim🎶🌌. Thank you all 🎉😊

Theory of universe: Universe is made from non observable called it is zero. When zero approach with one, an observable universe will be created. The process zero approach to one is reversible. The journey of zero approach to one is called time. The things created during this journey may be different size, shape and magnitude, speed, property.
Awesome episode and Kimberly is a great guest. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to her vast knowledge and the way she explained things. Really fascinating stuff.
Wow. I really love this episode. I never knew this was a thing and I'm absolutely in love with this. I need to go and find ALL the space data sonifications now!
Suddenly a question arises. When matter and anti-matter come together you get pure energy. If the universe implodes and everything comes back together, matter and anti-matter also come back together, that could release so much energy that it would cause another big bang (everything starts over again?)
I have never laughed at an episode of anything, so hard in my life! Chuck was looking from Neal's head, to the floor, and then to the crowd. I'm dying!
Just a correction. On Star Trek: The Next Generation, Geordi La Forge didn't lose his sight. He was born blind, so he never had it. It wasn't until he got the visor that he was able to see.
A musician would say that the music is made using only notes of a determined tone. They don't use all the 12 notes to create this sound, the result would not be nice to hear, but if we use only notes of a determinate tone, the result is harmonious.

The shows are so much more entertaining when chuck nice joins the team 🎉
Chuck is the seasoning in my Startalk stew.
Maybe because he is mainly an Entertainer.
he's very quick with the quips and manages to not be annoying.

I can still remember watching that hour-long chair-reality dissertation. So good.
Vsauce music starts playing 😀 Exactly what I thought of
I don’t know if I’m the only one that has noticed but Neil gave his jacket to Kimberly so she wouldn’t be cold. Such a gentleman🙂
Or because someone thought that she was not dressed appropriately for the situation.......
The oldest chat up line in the science book 😊❤😊

2,000,000 seconds is 23 days, 3 hours, 33 minutes and 20 seconds.
You're welcome.
This was by far the best episode yet. I have seen every single episode. Well done 🎉
"Everyone close your eyes" *does so... confused: hears beach sounds...opens eyes* Ah! Beach commercial! Funny.
*skips commercial: closes eyes again...wait...is that ... more... beach sounds?¡! Peaks again* 😂
Best commercial break timing ever. Lol 🎉
This is an amazing installment. The information from Kim, Neil's insight, and Chuck's jokes are all 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Omg this is just an amazing star talk, way to go guys.
one of the things nice about Tyson's videos is he leaves me smiling.

Couldn't imagine the arduous journey Kimberly would have had to undertake to make sense of all that data through sound. Awesome!!

I don’t know what to think honestly. It’s just a flow of wonderful sounds but you may have your points
This was a great conversation Kimberly Arcand. I look forward to her returning to Star Talk.
I heard Gas Bath and I immediately clenched and prayed Chuck didn't go down that road lol, glad he has limits and restraint :P :P
LMFAOOOOOO that's hilarious
I didn't want the conversation to end
This is so cool to see and HEAR! The universe is so amazing and so deep and complex. Y'all are funny and insightful and brilliant. Appreciate you Chuck, Neil, and Kimberly on your great insights and great sense of humor.
Great episode! Fun, fascinating and visuals. Thanks Neil, Kimberly, Chuck and crew!
❤️🧡💛💚💙🩵💜
Chuck is the best. Dude loves his country and so do I.
Ohh my ohh my this was just amazing, entertaining and a leaning experience. LOVED IT!
Should’ve introduced him as Lord Nice 1:47
I agree 💯
It breaks my heart that I will never be able to get on a spaceship and explore the universe.

So long needed. Star Talk genus. WoW 👀
Awesome summary speech!
My mind is blown!
"I gotta go!"
Thank you universe finally they bring my favourite subject.
The black hole scan sounds just like some of the music from the Mass Effect series. It's sooo fitting case Mass Effect is a space game. ❤❤❤
1:05:52 time to loop this and play on repeat
Chuck is a must!
i remember when you had Kim on a regular star talk episode. sonification.. who knew! Chuck-"That is my jam!"

Stars talk, or sing, in StarTalk. That's a very fitting subject for the show.
Best duo chuck and neil💀💀💀💀
Wow…just wow!!! Beautiful music from our Universe!!
Man, this is great!!!!
I love how 90% of the comments are just people living chuck 🤣❤️

Great video 🎉 Would you please make some 'shorts' with each 🎶 'sound of universe ✨️ '? (for people to share... maybe will get them to watch the whole episode, too) 😊 The universe is so beautiful, awe-some research, Kim🎶🌌. Thank you all 🎉😊
Wooooow the audio is panning left to right perfectly on my phone. So cool!
1:08:00 You are now being hypnotized 😵💫
you should title this as a live event with various topics. i thought it was going to be about one thing the whole time
Chuckization of the show...visualize and sonifies the show
I love your FRESH prospective on things and I love how you read my mind always have a good chuckle with you stating the obvious
The music of the stars indeed!
