I am currently exploring the sonification of weakly electric fish, such as the Black Ghost Knifefish, partially cos it's fun (see ENKI, by Tony Hall). but there is examples of using the frequency analysis to monitor water quality


Basic Setup

Aquariums

Nice travelling edition for the HLab14 Tourdigrade

Amplifiers

Maybe i should use an instrumental differential amplifier? like this one (luckily i have a bunch of them in my Mobile Lab) http://biosignals.berndporr.me.uk/doku.php?id=start

Inspired by these BioSignala she-geeks in the UK

First Sonification experiment

Listening

Please note that the clicks are not communication, but wiggles in the wiring... see chrips in the pic above, detected with pd.

Communicating

Merchandise

I am planning to make some nice crafted device for selling it in some local aquarium stores in yogyakarta. and of course a t-shirt
