DESCRIPTION:The lecture is part of the lecture series "Abstraction Today: 
 The Real and the Imaginary" Climate data is difficult for many to grasp\, 
 which is why the climate crisis is said to have a comprehensive perception
  problem. Risk research has also found that it is very challenging for peo
 ple to gain an awareness of risks from abstract data alone\, as they draw 
 their knowledge primarily from experiences they have had themselves. Howev
 er\, preventive decisions must be made for the future without this persona
 l experience so that these events do not occur in the first place. In the 
 lecture\, I will analyse the potential of sonifying and visualizing climat
 e and weather data with examples from art and science\, how they translate
  discursive data into aesthetic perceptions or make them concrete\, and di
 scuss the extent to which the data remain abstract despite their sensualiz
 ation.
