The data representation apparatus ( 100 ) for representing data by means of an audio signal (o), contains an processing unit ( 102 ) arranged to deliver the audio signal (o) with a characteristic (C) dependent on a positionless data variable (p) capable of having a first value ( 206 ) and a second value ( 208 ), whereby the data representation apparatus ( 100 ) comprises a mapping unit ( 132 ), arranged to map by means of a mapping the first value (206) of the data variable (p) to a first position ( 216 ) in three-dimensional space, and the second value ( 208 ) of the data variable (p) to a second position ( 218 ) in three-dimensional space, and the audio processing unit ( 102 ) is arranged to change the characteristic (C), resulting in the audio signal appearing to originate from the first position ( 216 ) for the data variable (p) having the first value ( 206 ) respectively the second position ( 218 ) for the data variable (p) having the second value ( 208 ), to a user ( 200 ) listening to the audio signal (o). A system containing such a data representation apparatus ( 100 ) and a source of data, a source of music and a sound production is also described, as well as a method. |
