Tourist arrivals

Data source

Source code

https://github.com/hovjdev/CyprusVitalSigns/blob/main/tourists_arrivals.py

Algorithm

1. From the year 2001 to 2021 monthly tourist arrivals to Cyprus are plotted on a bar chart.

2. The inverse discrete Fourier Transform is computed on the monthly data.

3. Results are concatenated year by year in the waveform function of the output sound.

Algorithm

1. Yearly precipitation data for Cyprus is plotted on a line chart and monthly data is plotted on a bar chart.

2. The inverse discrete Fourier Transform is computed on the monthly data.

3. The pitch and duration of the resulting waveform function is modulated by the yearly data and results in an output sound.
