Bubble sort, sometimes referred to as sinking sort, is a simple sorting algorithm that repeatedly steps through the list, compares adjacent elements and swaps them if they are in the wrong order. The pass through the list is repeated until the list is sorted. The algorithm, which is a comparison sort, is named for the way smaller or larger elements "bubble" to the top of the list.

Insertion sort is a simple sorting algorithm that builds the final sorted array (or list) one item at a time. When people manually sort cards in a bridge hand, most use a method that is similar to insertion sort.

Quicksort is a divide-and-conquer algorithm. It works by selecting a 'pivot' element from the array and partitioning the other elements into two sub-arrays, according to whether they are less than or greater than the pivot. For this reason, it is sometimes called partition-exchange sort.[4] The sub-arrays are then sorted recursively. This can be done in-place, requiring small additional amounts of memory to perform the sorting.

Shapes are segments of a continuous line, originating from a spiral (single line structure). Content determines language.

Selection sort is noted for its simplicity and has performance advantages over more complicated algorithms in certain situations, particularly where auxiliary memory is limited. The time efficiency of selection sort is quadratic, so there are a number of sorting techniques which have better time complexity than selection sort. One thing which distinguishes selection sort from other sorting algorithms is that it makes the minimum possible number of swaps, n − 1 in the worst case.

Resynthesis of a European robin (Erithacus rubecula), known simply as the robin, a small insectivorous passerine bird that belongs to the chat subfamily of the Old World flycatcher family. During the breeding season, male robins usually initiate their morning song an hour before civil sunrise, and usually terminate their daily singing around thirty minutes after sunset.Nocturnal singing can also occur, especially in urban areas that are artificially lit during the night. Under artificial light, nocturnal singing can be used by urban robins to actively shunt daytime anthropogenic noise.

This is an experiment with sinewave oscillators that are trying to replicate constrained versions of the original, natural sound source. Analysis of spectral components and mel-frequency distributions are widely used methods in reconstructing sonic information, machine listening and artificial intelligence.

The visualization is an imaginary space where the different synthesis methods have their own corresponding taxonomies and spatial arrangements.
