Leander

Leander is an experimental film that sonifies color data to generate its musical soundtrack. The colors of Lake Michigan, captured in time lapse video, constitute ever-changing probability vectors that govern the behavior of musical sound-events over time. This stochastic (or probabilistic) approach to data sonification imagines the musical experience as movement through a virtual possibility space, rather than the end result of a causal process.

Created during the first two weeks of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020.
