    If you think about it, music is simply data ordered in a specific way by a clever human and then executed by either man or machine. So why not take some existing data from a very clever machine and see if it makes music? Well that’s what the very very clever people at CERN have done.

    I’m sure you’ve heard of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The LHC is the world’s largest particle accelerator and is located in a tunnel, 27km in circumference, beneath the earth near Geneva, Switzerland; the aim of which is to help answer some of the most fundamental questions in physics.

    But now scientists at CERN have used a method similar to graphic visualisation called sonification to turn the raw data coming in from the LHC into what sounds very much like creepy music. You can download the files here. The website SynthGear is even hosting a contest to see who can remix these sounds in the most creative or interesting way.
