AB - The ultra-low frequency analogues of sound waves in Earth'smagnetosphere play a crucial role in space weather; however, the publicis largely unaware of this risk to our everyday lives and technology.As a way of potentially reaching new audiences, SSFX (Space Sound Effects) made 8 yearsof satellite wave recordings audible to the human ear with the aimof using it to create art. Partnering with film industry professionals,the standard processes of international film festivals were adoptedby the project in order to challenge independent filmmakers to incorporatethese sounds into short films in creative ways. Seven films coveringa wide array of topics and genres (despite coming from the same sounds)were selected for screening at a special film festival out of 22 submissions.The works have subsequently been shown at numerous established filmfestivals and screenings internationally. These events have attracteddiverse non-science audiences resulting in several unanticipated impacts on them, thereby demonstrating how working with the art world canopen up dialogues with both artists and audiences who would not ordinarily engage with science.
