Can flowers sing? What does a lime tree sound like? Does growing grass really make a sound? In October 2024, film music composer Cassis B Staudt will be taking interested parties on several tours of the Oberschöneweide and Baumschulenweg cemeteries to get to the bottom of these questions – using bio-data sonification.

How does biodata sonification work?
To do this, sound artist Cassis B Staudt attaches clips and sensor pads to the leaves of plants, to moss or to mushrooms. The electrical resistance is measured and reproduced as a sound by a sound generator. Photosynthesis and other biochemical processes in plants can then be heard by humans on a synthesiser, for example.
With these walks, the district office, in this case the road and green space office, would like to sensitise the public to the importance of nature worthy of protection. As a nature-oriented measure in state-owned cemeteries, the tours are funded by the Senate Department for Mobility, Transport, Climate Protection and the Environment.
