Visual Music: Visual Bach
(web site under construction)

Proposal - Gallery - Exhibitions

Visual Music is the visualisation and computational analysis of musical structure, focusing on symmetry and transformation.

Visual Bach focuses on the great German composer, Johann Sebastian Bach's last work, The Art of Fugue (AoF). The melodic motif that is being repeated and transformed in AoF is mirrored visually using geometrical structures. For a more in-depth introduction, take a look at the slideshow that was part of our grant proposal to the National Arts Council of Singapore.

Visual Music is a collaboration between Rex Guo and Timothy Poston.

We have accepted the invitation of Ketna Patel and John Reading to show an early concept demo at the Crossroads 2002 arts exhibition in Singapore.

'Symmetry I' is a choreography of the first fugue in The Art of Fugue. It is presented in real-time 3D stereo graphics and 3D surround sound, in demo style.

When the exhibition is over, you will be able to download 'Symmetry I' and enjoy it on your PC. So watch this space.

Visual Music is partially funded by the National Arts Council of Singapore.
