'''Final Proposal:'''
I wanted to explore the fundamental link between image and sound. How one can influence the other. Most of the time we notice sound influence image, more often by simply mood, shape and form. I wanted sound to be influenced there in by image.
Possibility 1:
LED's control sound notes via photo-resistors. Resistance of light would cause a different note to play. Planned on making a piece that allowed users to control the LED's light function to help change the notes.
Possibility 2:
Similar to above, instead of just reading light, I decided I wanted to make a piece that took in RGB data and projected it as sound. This way more interesting imagery could be created by the user. I decided to investigate using a webcam to read in data and transform it into notes.
Possibility 3:
After realizing that I couldn't get the code to work with a webcam, I decided to go back to the first possibility with a little more investment. I decided to construct a wall mounted LED display that played a beat based on the light within the room, and flashed different LEDs based on a random number generator. The LED's would in turn change resistances to photo-resistors which would cause a note to be played via the 2nd speaker. This project was not completed due to the complexity of the design and the lesser knowledge of it's programmer.
