Packing for a multi-day trail ultra run is a lot more fun if I imagine that I'm creating a new #dungeonsanddragons character :) #Cocodona250 #trailrunning
Such a fun conversation with people I respect and admire! Take a listen and let me know what YOUR definition of data is 👂📊
NEW EPISODE OUT TODAY!! 🎉
Sounds, Sights, Smells, and Senses: Let’s Talk Data with @jordanwb. In this ep, we go on a journey through the senses and discuss what "data" actually is (are)!
radicalai.org/data-senses
Long ago, I signed up for a little known, extremely tough 888km trail run in VT: Infinitus.
Amidst of muck + sleeplessness, joy + despair, generous weirdos + ravenous mosquitoes, I made a podcast. Out There re-released the ep today, so go take a listen! outtherepodcast.com/episodes…
Treat your ears to some top-notch #audio storytelling in this funny yet reflective essay from my friend @BoyceDan cpr.org/2022/09/21/audio-ess… 🎧 This is the most fun I've had listening tosomething in a long while!
Sketched a waveform-looking thing (for the gazillionth time b/c it's one of my visual short hands for "sound") then plopped it into PowerPoint, where I do a lot of quick and dirty graphics editing. The auto-generated alt text description: "A picture containing text, plant"
My life right now: Just found several chunks of mushy sweet potato -- of indeterminate age -- on my work headphones and thought, "Yup, that tracks." ...At least I hope it was sweet potato ;)
This project sounds very cool...love the ambitions to develop a "sonic language" for a specific sport's data! (Now I just need to clear my schedule so I can do something similar for Bachelor/Bachelorette stats...)
Hello world!
Watch 22 is my attempt at bringing numbers, football, music, and writing together. A vehicle to learn about data and to ultimately develop a sonic vocabulary for football data and metrics

Our pals @max_graze and @jordanwb are hosting a "participatory data + sound experience" soon and if you're into sonification then you should definitely sign up: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…
Just stumbled across this open online textbook on #soundwriting and now I'm obsessed!! Loving the format (each chapter has an audio preface), content, and commitment to playfulness..."It's not just a book about sound, it's in the form of sound" ccdigitalpress.org/book/soun… 🔊🧠
Have been watching this robin build a nest for a while now, and was worried when I didn't see her for two days. But, as of this afternoon...she's back!
Love these examples of interactive, spatial #sonification: noise maps of cities 🔊🗺 Mouse over to hear an audio scale, reinforced by a visual one. Brussels: noisy-city.jetpack.ai/?wpisr… New York: interactive.wearepossible.or… Designed by @jetpackAI h/t @pbump's fantastic newsletter
And here's a link to the full newsletter (which rapidly became one of my favs): s2.washingtonpost.com/camp-r…
Amazing opportunity to work with my colleague, Estelle! She's rad, I promise :D

#datathesenses - this time covering part of the sensory sketching workshop, led by @jordanwb and me for #CHI2022. Highlights include cultures that use their nose to navigate and a theory behind why our smell vocabulary is so limited. buttondown.email/datathesens…
Thanks for being there! It was fun to be with such an inspiring group on the last session of the last day. Paper, slides, and radio #sonification links are all at bit.ly/narrative-sonificatio…
