Very nice

I feel strange after listening to this. Could these sounds affect someone somehow? Zesh nice article you shared. +1, gexxos liked it and for an unknown reason he cant stop listening to it.

Could these sounds affect someone somehow?

In the article it mentions that the sounds can't be heard by the human ear. They had to do some "editing" to make this audible. So I don't think humans can be affected by the sounds.

This is funky... really kinda awesome. Heh I imagined space would be nothing but static, but this changes everything.

[geXXos]

I think is great it help to focus on something you do, to concentrate on coding or in whatever, i wonder if hanorotu could replicate these sounds or build on them something similar, and hear to it when code or read.

[Kulverstukas]

Indeed that's a good idea, gexxos. Hano could take this and put it into a music set that'd be an awesome track...

[geXXos]

Someone must make Hano to read this thread.

It might be the mere sensation that this is the most pure sound out there but it triggers some emotional thing , dont really know what that would be but it does.
Thanks for sharing that

[Mordred]

This is so fucking awesome. Thank you and +1.

It sounds similar to those isochronic 'study aid' and 'back pain relief' tones, look 'em up  . Somafm's drone zone and a couple other channels are good for some background noise when you're working on something, also iirc there was a thread some time ago about such music.

Damnit. Dumb fucking iPhail. I cant hear it until I go home.

Really nice. Definitly using this in my new song

I don't know why they say this is what deep space sounds like. This was taken from the Earth's magnetosphere. in deep space there isn't any medium for sound to travel through. there is nothing in deep space to hear.

The sound was recorded by the Cluster II satellite on the 9th of July 2001 using a Long Wave Radio receiver.
(...)
He says the signals were outside the range of human hearing so he had to  lower the pitch and filter them to make them audible.

Also:

The sounds picked up by the Soho spacecraft are so deep that Andrew had to magnify their pitch by 40,000 times.

And because the sound occurs once every five minutes he accelerated the recording 42,000 times to provide 40 days of pulses in a few seconds.

So yeah, this is not what it actually sounds like, because to us humans it just sounds like silence.

“The sound is what inspired me - once I had started to create audio from space data I wanted to find a way of presenting it."

To conclude, this is more of an artistic expression than a scientific finding.

No, There is no sound in space at any pitch. Sound travels through molecular vibrations, on earth it's air molecules. In space, there is such a vast sea of emptiness between molecules that sound is impossible. i don't like how it's misleading in the fact that this wasn't originally sound but radio waves.
