Audio Visual Sketch 01



Baby steps towards visualizing audio...


Coded in Processing, this merely responds to the amplitude of the audio track used.

Unfortunately I haven't managed to sync the audio/video data together yet (for export), so just the visuals will have to do for now.

I used the track Sequent C' by Tangerine Dream to produce this quick sketch. I was extremely surprised to see how much variation in visuals could be achieved by experimenting with musical genres.


I plan on capturing audio from "settings" and then feeding it through similar code to this to generate emotive visualizations.
