I seem to remember seeing something along these lines (pixel data value to
audio-sample value mapping) done with CSound many years ago... you might find
something useful by googleing 'csound'

Subject: [cnfractal_music] Converting the Mandelbrot set into sound


There have been various attempts to convert the Mandelbrot set into
sound, more or less unsuccessful. However there is one way which i
have recently thought of, and i don't know if it has been tried.
Basically, it requires the image to be calculated to a very high
resolution-about 40 000 pixels wide for each second of sound. Each
sample would represent one "line" of pixels, either horizontal or
vertical, the number of "black"versus "white" pixels becoming the
value for the sample. It seems this might produce listenable sounds,
possibly even harmonically complex, but i'm not sure. Does anyone know
if this has been tried, or have the programming skills and tools to
try to implement this?
