sounds of the sun

This sound was created by taking a file of solar irradiance data, and importing the data as a raw sound file using Audacity software. The three sound files represent different sampling rates and various processing procedures. This is my first attempt to create sound from data; I hope to get better results later, but these may interest someone.

Thank you. I'm just at the very beginning of exploring sound possibilities. I think these first three are more a function of odd conversions of the raw file into sound by Audacity, combined with some random alterations I did, than anything related to the original data, but I'll keep experimenting and see what happens.
