Earthquakes are among the most destructive geologic processes on Earth. Each year, several large earthquakes cause billions of dollars of damage and thousands of human casualties.

The study of earthquakes is a highly sophisticated sub-discipline of geology known as seismology.

Despite the destructive power of large seismic events, at least one individual has gained an appreciation for the hidden beauty of seismic energy by merging it with digital technology to create…music.

Follow the link below to HEAR what a recent large earthquake sounds like when the seismic data are coded to musical notes.

Weird Science at its best. I can't think of any questions to ask because, frankly, this one leaves me speechless!
