MUSIC GRAFFITI

MUSIC GRAFFITI is a series of textured immersive 'phygital' music paintings. The genesis of each painting is a visual interpretation of a musical idea or thought as a reverse graphic score. Beyond that it is an exploration of a sequence of recursive phase space transformations between the sensory spaces of Sound & Vision, Music & Art and physical/digital forms using a FEEDBACK LOOPS methodology. Each MUSIC GRAFFITI has a corresponding digital art remix and PHREAK MUSIC soundscape that are generated recursively using either audio or visual signal / seeds / stems from the previous transformation. The digital art audiovisual remix is loaded as an AR layer to the physical painting. The key for each painting is selected by scanning the background pattern through a combination of visual synthesizers, and selecting the key that produces a sound that best complements the visual effect. Essentially, the paintings produce their own ‘music' with the choice of key determined qualitatively by the sound produced. The naming convention for each individual painting is one of the 24 (standard western) musical keys, plus a number. For example, D Minor III is the third MUSIC GRAFFITI painting in the key of D Minor.
