iSoundScape_BIRD is a variant of iSoundScape that provides a new way to explore the ecology and evolution of bird songs, from scientific and educational viewpoints, by exploring the ecological space of "natures music", produced by populations of virtual songbirds from Northern California. There are 16 species, and 4 different song clips and a beautiful picture for each species. A listener is able to explore the soundscape and virtual ecology of multiple individuals of songbirds.
iSoundScape is a new kind of interactive evolutionary computation (IEC) for musical works, which is inspired from a biological metaphor, adaptive walk on fitness landscapes. This application enables you to explore your favorite musical works by walking through a virtual landscape of sounds called a fitness soundscape.
