  We present the result of a cross-disciplinary collaboration between Prof.
Donald Fortescue of the California College of the Arts in San Francisco and the
Dr. Gwenhael de Wasseige of the IceCube Collaboration. The work presented was
initiated during Fortescue's US National Science Foundation funded Antarctic
Artists and Writers Fellowship at the South Pole in the austral summer of
2016/17. One outcome of this collaboration is the video work Axis Mundi - a
timelapse movie captured during 24 hours at the South Pole, combined with a
simultaneous sampling of IceCube data transduced into sound. Axis Mundi
captures the rotation of the Earth in space, the transient motions of the
atmosphere, and the passage of subatomic particles through the polar ice, to
provide a means for us to physically engage with these phenomena. We detail how
both the timelapse and the transduction of atmospheric muon data have been
realized and discuss the benefits of such a collaboration.
