don't know if this is what you're talking about, but i'm very interested in and have been researching (for use in my own performances) both old school "visual music" (i.e. from the futurists before WWI) and contemporary sound-responsive, generative-imagery done with computers... here are a few links to artists and sites i'm aware of in this field. not comprehensive by any means! i'd like to know of others... - marius watz, and artist who creates sound-responsive visual images: http://www.unlekker.net/ - a group called "messa voce". they sing and create a live painting on the screen behind them hard to describe, just watch a video on you tube and you'll get it!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5qKkJRmlQg&feature=related - maura mcdonal's visual music blog which follows what folks are up to: http://visualmusic.blogspot.com/ - generator x, another blog or portal of sorts with a focus on generative art, have a music section http://www.generatorx.no/category/sound-works/ - this guy i stumbled across, benedikt grob. amazing work. watch the first vido on his site: http://www.looksgood.de/log/2007/02/03/seelenlose-automaten/ - the center for visual music http://www.centerforvisualmusic.org On Apr 26, 2008, at 7:59 AM, Nico Spahni wrote: > Lying in the sun, I've been thinking about a sound to picture > metamorphosis - maybe just an early sign of a sunstroke ;-). > > Wouldn't it be nice, if some entity (probably in the form of an > ingenious program) could visualize what we play?
