Our Mindful Nature: Meditation Inspired by Nature to Soothe the Overwhelmed Mind and Ease AnxietyMini Meditation: We Are Made of Star Stuff – For Anxiety, Connection & Cosmic CalmLast week’s episode (We Are Made of Star Stuff; An Interview with Dr. Kimberly Arcand) is a personal favorite of mine, and this week, I’m highlighting the meditation from that episode to make sure you have a chance to listen. The sonification of stars, black holes, galaxies and more invite a new way of knowing the cosmos. It is one thing to see a static image of the night sky and an entirely different experience when we hear that same data in an embodied way. Meditation is exactl...2024-05-0227 minOur Mindful Nature: Meditation Inspired by Nature to Soothe the Overwhelmed Mind and Ease AnxietyWe Are Made of Star Stuff: Meditation for Anxiety, Connection & Cosmic Awareness with NASA’s Dr. Kimberly ArcandIn 2020, experts at NASA’s Chandra X-ray Center began the first ongoing, sustained program to “sonify” astronomical data.

CivicSciTV-RadioSonification: A tool to break down barriers to participation in studying the universe? Visualization Scientist, Kimberly Arcand, says Yes.In this episode, we explore the fascinating world of sonification, the process of translating data into sound. Our inspiration is Dr. Kimberly Arcand, a visualization scientist and science communicator who uses sonification to study the universe. In a recent episode on CivicSciTV's special series titled 'Sounds of Science, Arcand's sonification of the energetic center of our galaxy, the Sagittarius A supermassive black hole is featured.
Key Points:
Sonification isn't just assigning any sound to any data point. Arcand explains how soundscapes are carefully designed to reflect the specific characteristics of the data being used.

Universe of ArtHow NASA translates space data into sparkly and haunting songsYou’ve probably heard that if you scream in space, no one will hear a thing. Space is a vacuum, so sound waves don’t have anything to bounce off of. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that space is silent. A team of researchers are taking data from a variety of telescopes and assigning them sounds, creating song-length sonifications of beloved space structures like black holes, nebulas, galaxies, and beyond. The album, called “Universal Harmonies” aims to bring galaxies to life and allow more people, such as those who are blind and low-vision, to engage with outer space...2023-08-0822 min

For many blind and low vision people, accessing outdoor spaces like parks can be challenging. Trails are often unsafe or difficult to navigate, signs don’t usually have Braille, guides generally aren’t trained to help disabled visitors, and so on.
But nature recordist Juan Pablo Culasso, based in Bogata, Colombia, is changing that. He’s designed a system of fully accessible trails in the cloud forests of southwest Colombia that are specifically tailored to help visually disabled people connect with nature.
