Homework 2

due: Tuesday, April 19th

Perform basic parameter mapping sonification using pure sinusoids, mapping data to frequency and amplitude. Use at least three simultaneous oscillators positioned differently in space (position can also be mapped to data), and experiment to find useful ranges, speeds and combinations. Provide a description of the data and the process in markdown with links to the sound files or an ipython notebook.
