Looking Outwards 04: Sound Art

Today I took a look at Unity’s music visualization program done by Peer Play. They created something that I found very intriguing because it was a refreshing take on traditional music visualization, utilizing small dots to create movement according to the beats of the music. The different colors keep the artwork lively and engaging as you follow along with the spinning movement of the small dots. It feels like a miniature light show on a display! I think that one way they were able to sync the movements of the lights with the music was to have certain lights assigned to certain instruments. The change in volume of the instrument would subsequently change the direction and movement of the light. However, there are so many movements that it’s hard to understand what each specific movement is assigned to!
