3. Visual Arts
When looking for qualities of a visual art project, look for
texture
hue
patterns
The fourth longest river of Europe captured by Astronaut Tim Kopra while orbiting Earth as part of the Expedition 36 and 37 missions. One can easily take this for an amazing masterpiece of an artist. This marvellous appearance of the river is attributed to the fact that it owns more than 32,000 tributaries.

4. Math of Nature
Fibonacci’s numbers
Fractals

5. Earth’s Sounds The following is a translation of the
sound of Earth. These sounds are the electromagnetic vibrations of the planet.

6. Stromboli Volcano
Volcanoes have vibrations in the lowest ends of human hearing, 20 hz.
Close view of Stromboli Volcano erupting incandescent molten lava fragments What if this could be interpreted to sound?

7. Music of Earth
When you hear of the Sounds of Space, tell me your thoughts on the “music” our planet generates.
Much of the field of tectonic activity is based on the study of harmonics and waveforms.

8. Students interpret the waveforms on the seismograph tracing.
Music Interpretation

9. The interpretation of the waveform becomes music.

10. Vibrations of the Earth
This project began when
students heard Earth.
The following is an excerpt of
the recording.
Recordings from the planets and moons of our Solar System Be prepared to experience a new dimension of our Solar System through the most exiting journey ever undertaken by the human kind. The epic space flights of Voyager 1 & 2 across our Solar System. This unique series of recordings is created from original Voyager recordings of the electromagnetic "voices" of the planets and moons in our Solar System. Although space is a virtual vacuum, this does not mean there is no sound in space. Sound does exist as electronic vibrations. The specially designed instruments on board the Voyagers performed special experiments to pick up and record these vibrations, all within the range of human hearing (20-20,000 CPS).
