This site deals with tracking global consciouness using the data gathered from little black boxes(REGs) in different places all over the earth. They taken data & had it generate music. Some pretty cool ways of perceiving consciousness. It looks as a race we're learning how to sing.

daily movies for a time (up to May 2000). These show the eggs as 
splashes whose color and size relate to the size of deviations in the
data, placed on a map of the world with time of day shown by the moving 
shadow of night. And, each changing splash of color is accompanied by 
notes that make a random composition reminiscent of the music of 
John Cage. These <A href="http://noosphere.princeton.edu/analysis/movies/worldbeat/">daily movies</A>
are big files (10 Mb) and require Quicktime or a compatible movie
player. A midi file of just the sound for Oct 24 1998 
will give you a taste. We'll call this piece 
<A href="http://noosphere.princeton.edu/music/981024.mid">Music of the Ovoids</A>.

Now Jim has done a resampled version to do the same:
