Scientists analyzed 2,500 year old Etruscan burial sites in Italy using artificial intelligence models paired with acoustic testing. The simulations showed how torch light and visual layouts guided visitor attention while room geometry amplified sound.

Scientists analyzed the preserved wing structures of twenty fossilized insects to generate audio of prehistoric calls. An artificial intelligence model predicted acoustic qualities based on the spacing of wing ridges. The project offers a unique auditory perspective on forest ecosystems from millions of years ago.
