Visualising Sound
White noise is a constant drone; it’s sameness and homogeneity, visualised in signal in a spiky uniformity. But what about white sound? How do we visualize sound?
Visualising Sound, the end product of my undergraduate white project, is a study of synaesthesia — the evocation of one sense via the stimulation of another. In much the same way artist Neil Harbisson interprets colour through sound (i.e. he hears colour), this work challenges viewers to interpret sound through vision and whiteness.
What sound do you see?
