Making Visual Music
[Тэкст даступны толькі на англійскай мове] Making Visual Music contains three contrasting videos: Cavalcade, Three Arabesques and Memories are Made of This.

In each case, an initial visual idea has been sparked off by a musical composition for clarinet (either solo or as a duet). Apart from developing the idea visually, I call on my skills as a clarinettist to provide the sound track.

Cavalcade (3 minutes, 27 seconds)
Abstract moving images are generated through mathematical adjustment to the number of shapes (always circles) set in motion and the randomization of their colour, speed and size. These are then matched against Andalusian Cadence from ’24 clarinet etudes from the world’ by Gregory M Barrett.

Three Arabesques (6 minutes, 4 seconds)
In the past, Islam was far ahead of the West in producing complex art forms based on the dynamic mathematical concept of trigonometry. Now, through coding, artists in the West can similarly ‘confound the eye of the beholder’. I play a mathematical game based on hexagons – a common theme in Islam – to produce patterns which take flight into a realm of geometric fantasy. In performing this work, I play one part of Poulenc’s clarinet duet live; the other part is recorded. As you will hear, the composer’s sound world embraces, appropriately, both tonal and modal harmonies.

Memories are Made of This (4 minutes, 12 seconds)
This video is about the human brain. A typical brain contains 17 – 75 billion neurons, each connected by synapses to thousands of other neurons. They communicate with one another through a system of interweaving axons. Nobody knows how, but this communication process enables the brain to generate ideas, thoughts and memories. In the first half of ‘Memories are Made of This’, action potentials propelled by axons can be seen occurring at 10 – 100 per second but they are slowed down considerably in the second half, which represents the brain’s regenerative activity during sleep.

In performing Making Visual Music, I provide a sound track live on solo clarinet matched by the simultaneous projection of my visual interpretations of the pieces being played. For this reason, I will require LPM to provide a screen, video projector and projectionist. Additionally, I will provide a version of Making Visual Music without sound (with the exception of Three Arabesques where the sound of one clarinet part will be retained). I will submit this revised version in any form to be advised by LPM.
