Abstract

This article describes the website Culturescape: An Environmental Portrait of Bundanon. This online portrait, a collaboration combining environmental science and art, includes an interactive environmental map of the Bundanon region in New South Wales, Australia, and documentation of environmental artworks by Nigel Helyer, all initially installed at Bundanon. The interactive map displays soil quality data at Bundanon in sonified and visualized form. The user hears a sonification of environmental data, represented as a musical piece, and sees a visualization of mineral data as a graphic display.
