American scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology wrote a piece of music based on the strings of a spider's web.
The website "Wreck Alrt" reported that Marcus Puller, a materials scientist and engineer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and a number of his colleagues scanned the natural spider web using lasers and recorded the web vibrations emanating from the movement of spiders.
Scientists tried to capture two-dimensional cross-sections and then resorted to computer algorithms to recreate a three-dimensional network, assigning different sound frequencies to the strings of the grid, then creating signs, merging them into patterns, and transforming them into a piece of music lasting just over a minute, similar to the graphic music of a scary sci-fi movie.
"These networks could be a new source of musical inspiration that is very different from the usual human experience," Boller said.
And last year, Boller translated the basic protein structure of the Corona virus into a quiet musical arrangement.
