Choir.io

"Listing to the Heart of Business" tries to find ways to give businesses a peripheral awareness over their data. Chior.io is a project that takes a very similar approach of presenting continuous data flows:

Chior.io is a web based service to allow to monitor processes acoustically, to provide "ambient awareness  without effort" [1]. Through an API, events can be streamed to the service which turns those events into sound. Defining those events happens by the user in the back end. Different languages are documented to send events to chior.io, such as Shell languages, Python, Ruby, Node.Js, PHP, C#, Java and Clojure. The resulting sonification is available online and therefore can be accessed from any machine. 

The sound design is given by chior.io and specifies three different event types: good, neutral and bad. Two different sound sets are available ("submarine" & "bloob"). 

Sounds available for the three emotions given by choir.io

It seems that individual sound design is not yet possible to implement. All auditory events appear to be static and sound icons don't seem to be able to change dynamically to an events' severeness. Hence, all events are technically treated as binary events. 

An impressive example and prove of concept is available on the project's website: A live sonification of GitHub events.
