What would light sound like if it were sound, and what would sound look like if it were light? Although different in many ways, light and sound both result from the interactions of particles and waves. Pre-recorded video of sunlight upon the Providence River is scanned by an algorithm coded in Max/Jitter, which then assigns synthesized sound to a position in ambisonic space. The azimuth and elevation of the sound is determined by factors such as brightness and position of light within the video frame. The piece is interactive through the use of a Korg MIDI controller by which qualities of the synthesized sound can be adjusted, making every performance unique.
First performed and recorded with the 25.4 loudspeaker array in RISD’s Studio for Research in Sound and Technology. Best listened with headphones in a quiet space.

A personal colour library based on memories of sunrises from home. Housed in the form of a website that slowly gradiates through all 101 colours in 30 minutes, the length of an average sunrise. Open it here, leave for a while, and come back for a surprise.
