Title
Data sonification of volcano seismograms and Sound/Timbre reconstruction of ancient musical instruments with Grid infrastructures
Abstract
Recently, the scenario of international collaboration in scientific research has swiftly evolved with the gradual but impressive deployment of high bandwidth networks and Grid infrastructures towards what is currently called e-Science. So far, several scientific domains, such as Life Sciences, High Energy Physics, Computational Chemistry, Earth Science, etc. are benefiting of e-Infrastructures to tackle new global challenges, particularly those that have high societal and economic impact, with a truly multidisciplinary approach. Much less has been done, however, in the field of Humanities. In this paper we present some use cases of how the EU funded e-Infrastructures have been used to support both the Cultural Heritage community in reconstructing the sound of ancient musical instruments and the scientists belonging to the Earth Science domain to better understand the behavior of volcanoes close to eruptions translating the patterns of volcanic seismograms into a set of hearable sound waves.
