Music is like magic. It can sweep you off your feet and spirit you away to places you never thought possible: it can serve as a teleportation device, achieve time travel, and let us read minds. Some pieces of music exist for their own sake, like Rachmaninoff’s Isle of the Dead, while others accompany different forms of media: ballets such as The Nutcracker and operas like La Bohème are instantly recognizable for their grandiose and immersive scores.

Specific configurations of these virtual audio effects can then be played to produce music, and then even saved by the user to load up and play with …

Thus creating the music that the band and myself activity engage with, in order to use emotions to inform our ideas and decisions to create sonic imagery. As if you were walking or listening to a painting itself.
