Description

Sound of Color is a web and mobile app that visualizes the relationship between color and sound frequency. Since both pitch and color use frequency, I aim to show the correlation between the two.

There are 3 pages that a person can interact with: learn, draw and play page.

When a person hovers over a section of color on the learn page, the wavelength of the color will animate and the associated pitch will also be played. On the play page people can draw wavelengths and play sounds that correlate to the color's frequency.

The play page allows people to play the colors and sounds of their surroundings. The live video will be transform into colored pixels. Each of these “pixels” will have a sound that matches the color based on frequency. The aim of this page is to experience the world abstractly in sounds and colors.

Sound advice and assistance from Billy Bennett.
