  This article describes a collaborative project between researchers in the
Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne National Laboratory and
the Computer Music Project of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
The project focuses on the use of sound for the exploration and analysis of
complex data sets in scientific computing. The article addresses digital sound
synthesis in the context of DIASS (Digital Instrument for Additive Sound
Synthesis) and sound visualization in a virtual-reality environment by means of
M4CAVE. It describes the procedures and preliminary results of some experiments
in scientific sonification and sound visualization.
