I am excited to announce a job opportunity! We are looking for somebody to join our team to help develop a "sonification toolkit", turning astronomical data into sound for planetariums and science centres.

More information and link to application: https://t.co/tG3S1GNr49

[Chris Harrison @CMHarrisonAstro]

This is towards making educational experiences more immersive and more accessible.
This 12 month post (potentially pro rata, part time), is to support the technical development, taking our existing code to work for planetarium leaders and integrate within planetarium software.

[Chris Harrison @CMHarrisonAstro]

If you are in the Newcastle area, I'll be presenting a public talk on 21st at 5.30pm (Herschel Building). A multi-sensory journey to a black hole: Using sound to enhance data exploration, accessibility, and immersive education
Free, but booked tickets: https://t.co/IYRSoAKGyT

🎟️Bookings now open

Join us on Thursday 21 November as we journey through the Universe using sound with Dr Chris Harrison @uniofnewcastle

@NCLMathsStats @STEMNewcastle

[Chris Harrison @CMHarrisonAstro]

This is the stereo-sound, flat-screen version, but a full-dome version (surround sound) is also available for free for use in planetariums.

[Chris Harrison @CMHarrisonAstro]

This show is an audio-visual tour of the solar system, aimed for families and primary school audiences. Everything is represented with sound using #sonification, so that it creates and immersive experience for everyone, which can be understood by those with any level of vision.
