The Shape of Song
by noteworthy at 2:13 pm EDT, Apr 3, 2007

What does music look like? The Shape of Song is an attempt to answer this seemingly paradoxical question.

The resulting images reflect the full range of musical forms, from the deep structure of Bach to the crystalline beauty of Philip Glass.
