Description
Sonification of earthquake seismograms...listen to the Earth quake.
Sonifications, plotting, uploading are done automagically in near-real time (~1 hour delay). Occasionally it actually works. All stations are part of the Global Seismographic Network, and data are obtained from the IRIS DMC (http://www.iris.edu).
Some seismograms sound better than others. Speakers with a decent low frequency response help.
Large earthquakes (M~7) are sometimes hard to hear because they don't generate high frequency energy, and hence, don't sonify well at our default parameters. Small earthquakes (M~5.5) can also be hard to hear because they are too far away from the seismic station to be audible above the microseismic noise.
More videos, info and maps can be found at http://flyrok.org.
