Judy Twedt: Climate data communication through digital sound arts

Bio: Judy Twedt creates music from climate data, and studies how people relate to both visual and auditory displays of climate information. She has a master's degree in Atmospheric Sciences, is a doctoral candidate at the University of Washington and a 2018 invited speaker for TedX Seattle. Her work is marked by the goal of connecting to climate change across differences, whether disciplinary, socio-cultural, or generational. She is also a 5th generation Washingtonian, from a family of farmers, settlers, and loggers.

Abstract: What happens to our perception of climate change when we listen to climate data? Does the process of creating music from climate data change our relationship to the science? These are questions I have been asking, through surveys and informal interviews with listeners and students. In this presentation, I will share preliminary results from teaching with data sonification in public outreach, in undergraduate classes, and in workshops for children. I will also share a composition, and discuss my own process of turning data into music.
