Converting colour to audio frequency
Feb 03 2017 | 8:50 pm
Hi everyone
I working on one project that involves synesthesia between colours and audio, but I got stuck and I don't know how to proceed further.
My starting idea is to try to convert a colour, from an image or a swatch, to a frequency value and after that I would like to use that frequency to map it to an (audible) sound freq.
After some research I found a way to convert a midi note to a color and now I would like to invert the process and try to start from a colour, get it's frequency and map it to a sound frequency.
Do you guys think that this process would be possible? Here you can find the patch that I'm working on, any help/suggestions are more than welcome.
Thank you all
