dc.description.abstractBacteriophage in Granular Waves is a musical work and performance that adopts data-driven composition methods, generative systems and sonification techniques to produce a musical work from a synthetic virology dataset. It has emerged from a larger collaboration exploring creative and artistic strategies for the visualization and sonification of virology data. The system employs agent-based modelling to draw samples from the dataset and uses waveshaping and granular synthesis methods to map these data to musical parameters. The end results is a performance that is always in flux where simple waveforms are sliced into tiny sections and reconfigured into texturally rich tapestries that interweave through one another shifting and unfurling in response to the virological parameters represented in the data.en
