Data-to-Sound is a live concert that features new works by three Northwest composers: Ben Luca Robertson, Jonathan Middleton, and Derek M. Johnson. Centered around the creative application of scientific research, each piece explores some facet of ‘sonfication’ - a process by which researchers translate data into sound. Working in collaboration with scientists from Gonzaga University, the University of Idaho, and the Nez Perce Tribe, each composer addresses scientific subjects spanning growth patterns of freshwater mussels to interplanetary exploration. Along with cello, piano, and live electronics, immersive visuals and surround sound accompany the music.
Cost: $15 general admission, Pierce College students are free with student ID.
