CHROMESTHESIA
CHROMESTHESIA
An instrument that translates colour into sound.
Chromesthesia sits somewhere between a musical instrument and a music player. Using a colour sensor we were able to translate RGB frequencies into the frequency of sound. Allowing the user to fluidly take the sound where they want with the spherical visual score.
Chromesthesia was exhibited at #dotdotdot by OneDotZero in 2015 and London Design Festival, Restless Futures in 2014.
