Title; Dromology of orbital bodies: sound composition, using commercial and military satellites tracking technologies. Year: 2018-2019 Core Area; Space-Earth Interactions To develop this project, it was necessary to first understand what technical possibilities were needed to develop the project and this connection. The solution was to find an IP with the information of all commercial and military satellites and have an update in real time. This issue was critical to the project because composition and spatialization had to be generated in real time. Access to “information flows” was therefore critical to the toning processes involved. This situation has been solved with the development of a software and hardware that allows to access in real time this information with also to choose the satellite that is to be followed in real time. These issues were solved in partnership with my collaborators Christopher Zlaket (1992) of Arizona State University, specialized in interface design and David Stingley (1993) of MIT, specialized in computer science.
