Hi,

Do you know a software that 'd convert a spectrum to voice (the opposite

to
what do a spectrum analyzer like Audio Wizard or Audacity) ?

The idea is to convert the visual spectrum of stars to voice (e.g. 400nm

to
400Hz.) or a radioastronomical signal recorded at SHF, etc.

I know that acoustic engineers could generate such audio files and some
musicians do such performances, but that means a lot of hardware, what I
cannot offer.

Even if this is a nonsense, maybe that a genious programmer developed

such
tool for mateurs...


It already exists, and is called an inverse FFT.

You might also look up _Music from the Galaxies_
by Dr. Fiorella Terenzi, who used radio astronomy
data to make music. The results were interesting...


Hi Laura,

Glad to hear from an YL ;-)
Indeed, as there some (300) audio files on my website, several composers
already wrote me to get more information.
Some of them told me that they 'd like to use such recordings to create
music Ã* la Tomita or Klaus Schultz and other "chillout" or "new age"
compositions.

Unfortunately I am not equipped for such a work but I 'd like :-((
