Project Type
Audio Transformation of Video Data / Video Generated Audio
Link
This project was implemented in Max/MSP/Jitter (a visual programming language for music and multimedia). The project is divided into several parts: video generation, video-to-audio conversion, audio synthesis, and combining these generated parts to create a sound performance. In the Max Patch, specific equations are set for video generation. The video is created by using different combinations of equations/functions to control the position, color, speed, and delay of each pixel. In the Sound Generate step, simplified signals from the video matrix are combined to generate a real-time changing buffer. This buffer will record the positions of the amplitudes corresponding to 32 samples in real-time, and sound is produced by looping these frequencies a specific number of times. This is combined with the real-time mini input signal values and predefined sound waveforms to generate a controlled synthesizer. The final step is controlling video generation based on other videos, and modulating 32 channels of amplitude to combine the video-generated audio and the video generation.
