Aura Walmer

Zen travels to San Diego to meet Aura Walmer, a researcher who experiments with blending her passions and talent in both art & music to revolutionize the ways we compile, share, and ultimately understand complex data. 

"I am passionate about drawing associations across these fields that I love, and cultivating a holistic life path. I hope to grow away from the pressure to compartmentalize these pursuits, to place them in defined boxes or identities. Recently, I have found compelling links across these interests, manifesting in areas such as acoustic ecology, data journalism and sonification, album artwork, the union of nature field recordings and music… the list goes on. (Sound, and art, and data — oh, my!) I am keen on continuing these explorations, and aspire to work and grow as a freelance artist, data scientist / researcher, and musician." -Aura
