Hydrogen: Music from the Periodic Table | Exploratorium

What is the soundtrack to the universe? Does it bleep? Boop? Have a beat? Are there lyrics? Welcome to Everything Matters: Music from the Periodic Table, a new weekly music listening series featuring compositions by the Exploratorium Sound Artist Wayne Grim. The periodic table outlines the fundamental building blocks of all known matter in the universe. Arriving from the Big Bang, the fusion wombs of stars and supernova, and collisions between interstellar matter and cosmic rays—and through production in the lab—the 118 elements currently arrayed on the periodic table display unique and beautifully related properties and behaviors. Be in your elements and listen to pieces inspired by the elements, originally composed by Wayne for the Exploratorium’s talk series, Everything Matters: Tales from the Periodic Table.
