For the fourth Decibels Challenge, the prompt for data is to make a drone-sounding sonification. The Data, I am using for my first entry of this challenge will be basketball stats.
Audio
IllestPreacha · DecibelsChallenge_DronifyPartOne: Basketball & Drones
Background
The sounds will be sonifyed by 7 game datasets by various players [Luka Doncic,Giannis Antetokounmpo,Candace Parker & Sabrina Ionescu] and the drone concept will be applied as followed:
Points will be represented by the "ambi_drone" sample
Rebounds will be represented by the "tabla_ghe2" sample
Assists will be represented by the "ambi_choir" sample
The above-mentioned parameters will control how long the sound plays and how long it will be stretched. This gives the sonification its drone-ish feel
Instead of a while loop, I will be using modulo for iteration
The length of the sounds is correlated to the numbers found in their stats
