Does this dress make my song look fat?
Thursday, May 22nd, 2008It’s hard to show music. There have been good attempts (thank you Information Society!), but there’s no one-to-one correlary between different senses, so most tries end up wanting.
Mario Basanov and Vidis video for I’ll be gone works because it leans so heavily on our pre-existing associations for visualizing rhythmic events. Would this help a deaf person ’see’ the song? Probably not. But for the hearing crowd, this video’s sonic visualization adds a rich additional dimension of surround sound - go watch the song and see for yourself.
