This week, I read about the work of Stefanie Posavec in Information Visualization. In her case, she used the silent wireless signals that surround us, converted into a sound that can be heard through specially modified hearing aids. She created a system of visualizing the wireless signals as they were heard on walks around London.
Stefanie describes this as an “experimental platform which aims to answer this question by translating the characteristics of wireless networks into sound”. I find the graphic not only very interesting but find the premise in which it was derived interesting as well. She essentially brings a sonic ambiance into a visual resolution, creating a conversation about what else can we not visualize but can represent it through information visualization.
