A symbiotic relationship exists between sound and image.
The moving image is created by sampling pixels from still-life photographs of audio output components and then reorganising their spatial coordinates in a virtual three-dimensional workspace. A virtual camera generated new imagery by recording an external second perspective of the source images' matrix of decomposed pixels. A second virtual camera traversed the virtual workspace to record a third lateral perspective of the recomposed source image.
Electronic sound is generated by sampling the images' colour, tonal, and spatial data values. Those values are used to create a histogram that synthesises the spectrum of an audio signal waveform, which in turn was used to reorientate the x, y, and z coordinates of the extracted pixels to form new frames from each original frame, which were then linearly sequenced.
