Biosonification is the process of turning biological signals into sound. This guide explains how it works, how data becomes music, and how PlantWave applies it in real time.

PlantWave turns a changing electrical measurement on a plant into real-time musical output. Here's exactly how — from electrodes to conductivity signal to wave to pitch to soundset.

Plants don’t “sing” or intentionally create music. What we hear as plant music is a real-time translation of biological signals into sound—grounded in measurement, not mysticism.

A shift is underway in generative art. Instead of synthetic inputs, artists are working with biological signals from living organisms — and PlantWave sits at the center of that shift.

Mushroom music is created by measuring subtle electrical activity inside living fungi and translating those signals into sound. Here's what that actually means, how it works, and why people are paying attention.
