Sextification

The anticipation of a sexual encounter with a partner. Sexy plus anticipation equals sextification.
Every time I wait for my boyfriend to come home after a long trip gives me the greatest sextification. I can't wait to have sex with him.

She said she wanted to have sex tonight. The sextification is kelling me.

SaaSification

The unholy ritual where a perfectly fine one-time purchase software gets sacrificed to the subscription gods, forcing companies to pay monthly for what used to be theirs forever. Symptoms include sudden charges, constant "Pro Version" pop-ups, and an existential crisis over whether you really need another $9.99/mo service to rotate PDFs.
The in-house solution was working perfectly, so naturally the managers opted for SaaSification of the program

Rock Sonification

A specialized subfield of geosonification focusing on the physical and chemical properties of rocks and minerals. Data from spectrometers, electron microscopes, or core samples can be turned into soundscapes that reflect a rock's composition, formation history, or crystalline structure. It can be used for both scientific analysis and creating deeply textured, "ancient" musical works.
Rock Sonification Example: A geologist sonifies the layered mineral composition of a billion-year-old shale formation. Different elements produce different tones: iron rings like a bell, quartz creates a shimmering high end. Playing the "song" of the rock from bottom to top layers reveals the audible history of environmental changes across eons.

Data Sonification

The process of translating quantitative data (numbers, measurements) into non-speech audio, using sound parameters like pitch, volume, tempo, and timbre to represent different variables. It turns spreadsheets into symphonies, allowing patterns, trends, and anomalies in datasets to be perceived through the human ear, which can sometimes detect subtle rhythms and shifts that the eye might miss in a graph.
Data Sonification Example: A climate scientist sonifies 100 years of Arctic temperature data, mapping each year to a note. Rising temperatures cause a slow, creeping rise in pitch. The listener hears a haunting, accelerating upward glissando over the century, making the abstract trend of global warming viscerally, emotionally audible in a way a line chart often isn't.
