Hi Kenneth,
What a cool idea! I played around with sonification of network traffic once upon a time, using kismet, tcpdump and fluidsynth glued together with a bit of perl. You can listen to the results here:
Seriously cool.
To avoid the privacy issues with monitoring exit node traffic, perhaps you could run this on the client's LAN, producing two pieces of music, one for unanonymised traffic and the other for the same traffic passed through Tor? Then we'd know what privacy sounds like. :-)
I hadn't considered the identified vis-à-vis anonymous traffic differential before. Interesting!
In a sense I'd like to do with Tor what the same sense & sensibility has already done with Wi-Fi with digital hearing aids: code transformation.

I haven't any skill set for coding whatsoever, but a DJ at KRBX Radio Boise hase expressed some interest (I wrote the Wikipedia article on the Treefort Music Fest), and I've spoken on the air about Tor, so an acoustic rendition of Tor is not beyond reason.
