More exploration of the links between colour, shape and sound

We're still thinking about the wonderful multi sensory world of music ... colour, shape and sound.
Recently at an in-house training day, Hugh Nankivell took us into a world of graphic scores.

This inspired Alex, Josh and Jane to experiment with some 'graphic scores' at the Listening Lounge.

There's a big clock on the wall in the room : tick-tock-tick is always in the background of our music.
We decided to follow the clock and play together for exactly one minute.

Then we sat at the table, chose a colour, and drew a picture representing what we'd played - we had exactly one minute to draw.

Then, we passed our instruments on and had - you guessed! one minute - to make a piece of music together, on our new instruments, by the following the 'shape' our drawing.

Then, we turned the paper around and experimented with playing each others' graphic score.

Finally, we used the amazing Tunetrace app to photograph and play the picture. Tunetrace allows you to photograph drawings which then generates live music.

Make drawings in the real world, photograph them with Tunetrace and hear them transformed into music. - See more at: http://www.qappsonline.com/apps/tunetrace/#sthash.axmltX0J.dpuf
