Cosmic dark energy made into music
channel4.com – Sep 23, 2007
Dark energy data from an expanding cluster of galaxies one billion light years away is being used to generate musical sounds using computer software and synthesisers. An exhibition opening on Thursday will allow members of the public to hear the “sonic interpretation” at Cambridge University's Institute of Astronomy. Speakers placed inside the Institute's three telescope domes will play the electronic music as well as dark energy performances by Indian and jazz musicians. Scientists are still baffled by dark energy which makes up 74% of all the matter-energy in the universe and seems to permeate space. Its anti-gravity effect can be seen in images from far-away galaxies. ne particular galaxy cluster Abell 2029 one billion light years from Earth in the constellation Serpens has been used by astronomers to study dark energy. Data from X-ray images of the galaxy cluster captured by Nasa's Chandra satellite were fed through a computer and turned into “notes” of varying pitch and intensity.

Free with registration – Kansas City Star – AccessMyLibrary.com – Sep 23, 2007
But Eighth Blackbird is no rock band. It’s six of the most virtuosic musicians ever to emerge from formal music training who came together in 1996 at hio’s berlin Conservatory of Music. And they’re making a career out of playing contemporary music fresh off the composer’s writing desk — crackling dynamic music with dazzling color that appeals to listeners who wouldn’t dream of cracking open a Mozart symphony. It’s one of the first new full-time mixed ensembles to devote itself to. CPYRIGHT 2007 The Kansas City Star.
