Description
Hidden Music: The Composer’s Guide to Sonification offers a comprehensive exploration of sonification—the transformation of data into sound. This innovative volume demonstrates how composers can leverage sonification as both an artistic and scientific tool in contemporary music practice.
Milton Mermikides examines the theoretical foundations and practical applications of sonification, providing composers with methodologies to create meaningful musical representations of complex datasets. The book bridges the gap between music composition and data visualization, offering techniques for translating information across sensory modalities.
As part of Cambridge University Press’s Elements in Twenty-First Century Music Practice series, this work addresses the evolving role of composers in an increasingly data-driven world. Readers will discover how sonification can enhance both aesthetic listening experiences and functional data interpretation, making it essential for contemporary musicians exploring experimental and interdisciplinary approaches.
