That was beautiful. I am no musician but does anyone know if it matches or is close to any human composed piece of music?

Amazing, I could hear snatches of what sounded like Chinese classical music amongst the other sounds.

To me it sort of sounds like Mike Oldfield's epic song Taurus II.

Yep!  Good call.  I felt it seemed sort of familiar.   It is very reminiscent of his music style.  Thanks.

Nice interpretation of visual data. I wonder how and why the programmers assigned the individual sounds to the data that they did. Regardless it was pretty cool. Thank you.
