Data sonification of USD/BTC exchange rates taken from Mt.Gox, spot prices for copper in USD per tonne taken from COMEX, and equivalent prices for copper in BTC per tonne calculated from the former data sets. All data normalised to the range 0 to 1, the first five significant hexadecimal digits mapped to pitch, exponent mapped to dynamics and distribution mapped to delay. Produced using Processing, Pure Data and Microsoft Excel.
