Biosonification

The specific sonification of biological data—heartbeats, brainwaves (EEG), genetic sequences, or cellular activity. It creates an "audio fingerprint" of a living process, used for medical diagnosis, biofeedback, artistic expression, or scientific discovery. Listening to the body can reveal arrhythmias, brain states, or the rhythmic patterns in protein folding that are hard to see statically.

Biosonification Example: A composer creates a piece by biosonifying the electrical signals of a growing plant. Gentle, pulsing tones represent photosynthesis. When the plant is lightly damaged, the audio shifts to a discordant, anxious cluster of sounds, translating the plant's stress response into an audible experience, blending science and art.
