Concept
|
A new interpretation of light organs which explore different levels of synesthetic correspondences. The notes on the keyboard are associated with colours and objects that appear in the viewer. These three-dimensional shapes generate the illusion of proceeding from an infinitely distant sound source, they act as a visual representation of the movement of sound through space. Chromaticast transforms a classic TV and a keyboard, into an interactive controller of musical & optical illusion. Custom application developed in Max/MSP/Jitter by Caen Botto |
