The UTDallas ArtSci Lab Sonification
 "Half-Empty/Half-Full" Training Module.


Here are the instructions for those unfamiliar with these sonification training modules

 Basic Instructions for each cell :
1. Press "Shift + Enter" at every new cell to initiate display/execute that cell
2. Hit the Space Bar to go to next section (cell)


These are the two main actions that you need to move forward, cell by cell in each unit
This is how this system functions
Do these now

As Before, Please put on your best headphones on and Set your system Volume to 50%.

Words are not sonification, exactly, but listen in this next section use your ears!

Use Space Bar or arrows at bottom right to navigate to next section

Time to move onto the Exploration Module

Now that you have the general idea of this straight forward sound representation. It is time to move on to the next phase of exploring the sonification. Go back to the list of available notebooks and select "Full or Empty Training Module"
