Media+Code

My plan is to make audio reactive visuals with Max/MSP/Jitter. The screen will be black when it is quiet and there will appear two white (tower-looking) rectangulars when sound starts. They will get brighter and more lively depending on the level of the volume. Low-frequencies will be seen in the bottom of the towers and hi-frequencies at the top. The left tower will show the sounds that are coming from the left stereo channel and right shows the sounds from right channel. I want to keep it very minimalistic.

Here is an example of where I am aiming aesthetically (the beginning of the video):

And here`s one example of what you can do with Jitter:

I’m interested to manipulate old photograph or painting. Juxtaposing organic and synthetic visuals and using a similar approach with sound and music as well. Here’s an organic nature photo chopped in pieces and surrounded by grid. http://fyprocessing.tumblr.com/image/33215954758

Here’s some insight (very broadly) on remix theory as Lev Manovich sees it
