Here's what a spider's music sounds like. Scared of spiders? Wait until you hear the music that they make. Scientist Mark Buehler teamed up with his colleagues at M.I.T. to translate the structure of a spider's web "into music". By laser-scanning a web and then assigning a different frequency to each string, they found a webbed symphony of spooky music. Some of it sounds like it could set the mood for an Alfred Hitchcock film; other parts sound like a terrifying modem straight out of 1999. Bueller explained that "The spider lives in an environment of vibrating strings. They don't see very well, so they sense their world through vibrations, which have different frequencies." He added "Webs could be a new source for musical inspiration that is very different from the usual human experience."
