synesthesia
1. A condition in which one type of stimulation evokes the sensation of another, as when the hearing of a sound produces the visualization of a color.
Installation. May 2005
I had a microphone feed into the computer and audio from the room changed the display. I displayed a circle related to the voice of the room (pitch relates to size, and volume relates to color). As the viewer/participant speaks or sings or yells they see their voice transformed into colorful movements of varying size. The louder the sound- the colors of these forms brightened. In the background I had a sweeping cascade of colored lines. These would take control if there was no noise in the space.
I plan on making the display available online using personal mics from viewers computers to animate it. Ideally I would want multiple users to be able to log on and effect the animation collectively. Each input will generate shapes.
Here is a captured video feed.
