Pallavi Kiragi 

Multidisciplinary Designer. Artist.


As a human-centered practitioner, I am always looking to embrace transdisciplinary design values and actions through experimentation of processes and mediums. Familiarize with trends and assess their relevance to the user's definition and experience via perception and thought process. I am passionate about tangible interactions, spatial design, and data-driven outcomes. My other form of creative expression is music production, specifically sound design and synthesis applied to film scoring and electronic music.

Covid Sound

Touchdesigner, processing (java), OSC
A sonic data visualization of active cases and mortality rates across India's states and union territories from the onset of COVID-19 to March 2022, created using OSC and sound synthesis. This project was featured in the Museum of Contemporary Digital Arts Summer Show 2022.


Data Sonicification of Active Cases and Mortality rate across all states and union territories in India since Covid's inception till March 2022. The video is Covid-19 data mapped to create visual structure and cohesive arrangements analyzing state by state with respective population arcs. The interactivity is based on using OSC (Open Sound Control) that connects devices under a local network, matching ports. By controlling OSC sliders, parameters of sound waves can be manipulated such as basic audio effects (reverb, delay), keeping the data intact. The core of this project emphasizes the experimentation with processing code and sound synthesis using simple datasets.

The dataset was downloaded from a source online and loaded into the processing code. Mapped the cases and deaths code data to the frequency and amplitude of Sin Oscillator and Tri Oscillator respectively. Color-coded each state in rainbow order. The date and State name were in bold white color as the date passes by for each state.
