About
_____

| This is a sonification project using |supercollider|. It uses the openly
  available datasets of |opensnp| and creates sounds from bases/ base pairs on
  chromosomes, thus "the sound of people".
| As for each human the sequence is distinct, this will open the door to a
  whole universe of sounds possible to create.
| Stereo and multi-channel setups (4,6,8 & 12 channels) are possible.

| Have fun listening, read about its features and requirements on the
  |thesoundofpeople-about| and get involved coding (by asking for your |ssh-key|
  to be added)!
