Abstract
We introduce SysSon, a platform for the development and application of sonification. SysSon aims to be an integrative system that
serves different types of users, from domain scientists to sonification
researchers to composers and sound artists. It therefore has an open nature capable of addressing different usage scenarios. We have used SysSon both in workshops with climatologists and
sonification researchers and as the engine to run a real-time sound
installation based on climate data. The paper outlines the architecture
and design decisions made, showing how a sonification system
can be conceived as a collection of specialised abstractions that
sit atop a general computer music environment. We report on our experience with SysSon so far and make suggestions about future
improvements.
