SteganoSynth

A few weeks ago I was going through Computerphile's videos on image processing and image data to kill some time. Eventually I came across David Domminney Fowler's video where he takes image data to create some glitchy music. I thought it was an awesome idea and wanted to try it myself and expand on it.

Version 1.0

Version one is very similar to David's video linked above -- add an image and the synth will go pixel by pixel playing frequencies based on color data in that pixel. I added a node editor so the user can decide what component of a pixel drives what component of the frequencies and a dropdown to allow a user to choose which scale they want to play in.

TODO

  • Add synth voice options
  • Add more fun scales/nodes
  • Add collage mode (up to 3 or 4 images/synths going at once)
  • Add file export
  • Allow real-time node editor patching
  • Add an effects window
  • I'll need a nicer UI at some point
