Color Music

This project was made by scanning the color samples that matched the keys found on a toy piano. The piece was then designed by color only. The matching audio was then added. In short, I composed music by the visual representation of sound alone.

@Booklvr777 FCP 5.1 It could have been produced in many different programs. I video taped a Little Tykes Piano as I played 1/4 notes up to whole notes. I ended up doing only whole notes. Then linked the sound file to the color bar. Then "Painted with sound" by editing only the colors I liked. (cords only) I didn't know what it would sound like until done. This was on a loop for a week as part of sound art show. The LT Piano was a big hit as many liked to play along.

There is an art movement called visual music. This is an example of work within that movement.
