Noise for Airports

Vibrations and how they get to your ears.

Noise for airports is a blog about culture, sound, music, and technology.

You can filter the posts to see just things I wrote or made.

On his New Yorker blog, Alex Ross posts some very neat musical data visualization: the average BPM of recordings of Beethoven’s “Eroica” Symphony, first movement, by recording year. I don’t see too much trending in there, but the distribution is interesting (red dots indicate that the repeat was taken, blue dots no repeat). You can see a lot more at An Eroica Project. (Seriously, a lot, go check it out.) (via Unquiet Thoughts)
