Audio visualization: auditory-visual connection through the theme of mediation
This project aims to explore the potential of establishing an auditory-visual connection through the theme of mediation. To achieve this, I selected the sound of a temple bell as the background audio, as it symbolizes sanctuary and auspiciousness. The recursive sound of the bell, with its repetitive pattern and contemplative quality, resonates with the listener, creating a sense of harmony and peace. To visually represent this connection, the team designed a mechanism that responds to the amplitude of the audio by creating a series of curves that gradually circulate around a central point on the screen. This design is intended to create a sense of surprise and wonder for the audience, as the movement of the curve is unexpected yet harmonious with the sound.
As the piece progresses, the mechanism connects to additional pin-points along the edges of the display, forming thousands of curves that are animated with the audio. I used this simple yet powerful mechanism to continuously manipulate, overlay, and recreate the curves, resulting in a complex and dynamic three-dimensional form that is revealed at certain moments. By engaging both the auditory and visual senses of the audience, this project creates a unique and immersive experience that blurs the boundaries between sound and image. The result is a captivating and contemplative piece that encourages the audience to reflect and meditate.
