Abstract
Chemical spectra are an important part of how research
chemists analyse the outcomes of experiments. However these
complex spectra can be very difficult and time consuming to analyse.
This paper outlines an investigation into using sonification to
improve the understanding and ease of analysis of chemical spectral
data. The project specifically uses sonification techniques to
display Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectra. Two sonification
methods were designed to offer different perspectives on
the data; “Spectral Audification” allows a quick overview of the
data while maintaining its subtleties whereas a simple parameter
mapping method allows more in-depth analysis of the spectra such
as the use of rhythmic patterns to make sets of peaks easily identifiable
