A musical tone consists of multiple overlapping sine-waves oscillating at varying rates. This motion graphic represents the isolated frequencies and rhythmic patterns of Ryan York's “If I Am This Forest”. Of particular interest is the swell beginning at 0:45, and multiple simultaneous frequencies which form the single melodic vocal line at 2:05.

You can purchase If I Am This Forest, which I designed the packaging for, by visiting nonprojects.net

    Nice sound visualization! Is there any way I could get whatever code/program you used for this? I'm working on an architecture project that is all about sound/space/time and would love to incorporate this visual...please?

    I checked this out and tried plugging in an artist and track to the url, but nothing happens...can't see any controls either...
  • Lee Martin plus 4 months ago
    That link should bring up the track above. You can change the url to point to any SoundCloud track. Like:

    soundcloud.com/foofighters/rope

    to

    spectrogram.heroku.com/foofighters/rope

    Then press "h" for controls.

    You'll need a newer version of Chrome, Firefox, or Safari.
