A CLEARER VIEW OF SYMPHONY SNIPPETS
THERE IS SPACE BETWEEN the layers of sound in a symphony. This layering is what I have tried to capture in my Synesthetic art.
Without layering the shapes and colors of sound would mix into one mess of a shape when you see them.
IT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE THE LAYERS OF SOUND represented in the Snippets when using a frontal shot from the camera. Seeing the actual painting is the best way to understand what I mean.
HERE ARE TWO ANGLED SHOTS from one of Copeland’s symphonies and one of Stravinsky’s showing the actual depth of the paintings.
WITH THIS TECHNIQUE the base and melody can now maintain their own level of importance in the visual as they do in the audible.
Hope this helps.
