SOFTWARE AGENT G has created and returned an XML file containing Java and two MPEG-4 media objects. The first media object is determined to be a .WAV file created by physicist John Cramer. Metadata summarizes the file as an auralization of a mathematical model of the Big Bang. The second media object is identified as a transmission, originating beyond the orbit of Saturn, from space probe Cassini. SOFTWARE AGENT G has rendered the data as a 00:00:15:07, 30:00 fps DV QuickTime looping movie. Frame 1343 is available for study and analysis as a color and grayscale print.
