    Learn how to represent data using sound. Data is often represented visually, in charts, graphs, tables, and maps. Sound can also be used to support scholarly work and to tell data stories. In this 1-hour webinar, learn the basics of data sonification (what it is, general considerations/practices, and tools) and practice illustrating data with sound using the free, web based app TwoTone.

    This presentation's format will be a tutorial on a tool. Registration will open on March 27, and the webinar is scheduled to be recorded. RDAP webinar recordings are available to RDAP members through the RDAP Hub.
