A short sonification based on a photograph by <a href="http://sidsmith.blogspot.co.uk/">Sid Smith</a> as part of Sid's String Quartet project, where he offers photos to be used as graphical scores. Go <a href="http://sidsmith.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/string-quartet-online-collaboration.html">here</a> for details.

I chose a very literal approach that also afforded me the opportunity to play with the very interesting <a href="http://warmplace.ru/soft/ans/">Virtual ANS</a> software. It is possible to treat an image as a sonogram and then translate it to audio. The vertical axis is used for pitch and the horizontal axis represents time, according to the settings one uses. Every detail in the image is represented in some way in the rendered sound. I did some post-processing in Audacity to add some reverb and adjust the amplitude.

Sorry, SC won't let me follow any more people, so don't feel slighted if I don't follow you back.

I share music that I have made here solo or in groups. I am bundling my work with some online friends as a project oriented, micro-collective. We are happy to share with you!

"I'll be right over and I'll bring some hummus and some grass"

music / it is there since I was a kid / it talks to me / and I have never done a lot for it // I have not so much studied it / just what I was interested in / and if i went in some depth, it was spontaneously, without effort or discipline / / yes, I've always loved it and I will always love it, yes / / and maybe I've always understood and surely felt it // music / beautiful

I think a good way to conceive of sacred space is as a playground.

"I'm a mellow artist, ageing 69. I love and release eclectic music, from post-classical to drone. My fave instrument is the Mellotron."

Così, sinteticamente, di solito mi presento.

In genere compongo musica partendo dal suono delle tastiere, ma il mio vero strumento è il registratore.

O i software di registrazione.

"I was made for loving and making recorded music."

Confido da sempre nel potere evocativo e orfico della musica, nella sua capacità di riconsegnarci a mondi più veri e più giusti, più belli di quelli in cui di solito viviamo.

"Ich bin ein kosmische Kurier"

SoundCloud è la piattaforma musicale che preferisco perché è soprattutto il regno degli ‘amateurs’, di quelli che fanno musica per sé e per gli amici .. come quando da ragazzi si condividevano con gli altri le invenzioni e le creazioni .. io sostanzialmente sono rimasto lì e così .. non sempre, ovviamente, ma spesso ci trovo delle cose che valgono altrettanto - se non di più - rispetto a quelle più affermate e conosciute

*I'm a bass player / improvisor / performer / composer living in southern Maine. I'm currently playing bass with avant-groovers FUTURE MEMORY, and work as a freelance bassist with many local musicians. Most of my recent work has been in the area of jazz and free jazz, but I'm now working on some new projects that involve progressive rock, found sounds, ambient music, etcetera. Especially etcetera.
