Deadline for Submissions

Latest date for submissions is 30 May 2022.

Dates of Exhibition

26th to the 29th of October 2022.

Where

Alcalá la Real, Jaén, Spain (Convento de Capuchinos)

Granada, Spain (University of Granada, Faculty of Fine Arts "Alonso Cano")

Topic

The topic of the exhibition is visual music and synesthesia. For “visual music”, we intend every representation to be only visual or audiovisual, suggested by the music. The correspondences between the visual and music can be the results of synesthetic perceptions (the visuals are the mental images suggested by the music); or the correspondences can be the result of studies on the analogies between the visual and musical languages (rhythms, tonality, texture, colours, etc.). The support of a narrative thread is not required.

Contact - Augmented Acoustics

Felix Faire (UK), a Parametric System Designer had designed some very interesting interactive installations. One of these, Contact is an interface with which to manipulate and visualize sounds. Beautiful results. View Contact: Augmented Acoustics CONTACT: Augmented Acoustics from Felix Faire on Vimeo . "CONTACT is a tangible audio interface to manipulate and visualize sounds generated from interaction with a simple wooden surface. Any physical contact with the table generates acoustic vibrations which are manipulated and visualized LIVE as they occur using several communicating pieces of software. All code will be opensource and available on github.

D.D. Jameson - Colour Music (1844)

D.D. Jameson devised a systematic approach to create a colour music score for a specially adapted piano. His scores took the information from a piano music score and applied it to a sound-music colour scheme and translated it into a colour score. The colour score communicated the musical information - such as notes, rhythm, durations. His score was to link to a special adaptation of a piano music instrument that would have the keys prepared with the relevant colours. The musician could then play the piano by following the colour music score. Not only were the piano keys to be coloured according to his colour to tone analogy system but the score was to also communicate other aspects of the musicianship such as: the intervals of the music, the notes and their octaves, by mapping the height of the colour to the octave of the note and the width of the colour to the duration of the note. "A pianoforte having been prepared in the manner described, any air may be slo...
