RGBMusic Subway Synesthesia (musical facepalm)

Assigning arbitrary musical values to an arbitrary color space, RGB in this case, yields complete garbage as is easily predictable. Also, reading “fat pixels” from right to left and top to bottom is completely wrong, and has nothing at all to do with the way we perceive images.

Even were the musical values well-researched and agreed upon by an actual person with “synesthesia” still the “installation” in question amounts to showing them a long, random sequence of solid colors.

Here’s some poetry to accompany the visual and musical “art.” Source link
