Talk:Visual music/Archive 1

dubious material removed, some inaccuracies corrected, several problems with the below as well

please provide supporting documentation, how is this statement verifiable? ALso where is any documentation or text that this claim is controversial? Wikipedia can't be used for your own personal opinions or editorializing, things posted need to be supportable.

Dubious statement: This claim about the ancient origins of visual music is controversial. It has been suggested that the history of visual music (color music) begins much later than the Ancient Greeks, in the centuries after the Renaissance.

Also, references to scholarly infighting about definitions are editorializing, and are not factual material of interest to wikipedia entries

Statements such as this: 'While it may seem that visual music would be readily identifiable' are not appropriate encyclopedia entries.

Question, 11-18-06 What is the source for the latter half of this sentence? Whose definition is this? Several different definitions of color music exist; one is that color music is generally formless projections of colored light.

the iotacenter (www.iotacenter.org) is the oldest organization dedicated to visual music, and the website contains many great resources including over 40 published articles, biographies of artists, and upcoming events. To claim such a link is 'innapropriate' indicates the correcting user has not done any research into the subject.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.123.235.124 (talk • contribs).

Reply to above:

--this site www.iotacenter.org contains numerous inccuracies & errata. The claim above that it is "the oldest organization dedicated to visual music" is not verified

and inaccurate. The statement of 'many great resources' is an opinion; these resources appear to include a number of poorly written bios, incomplete and erroneous filmographies, inaccurate dating of films, discrepancies amongst various articles, and a general lack of any fact checking. There appears to be a large amount of unverified content and inaccuracies, and some blatant misrepresentations. Thus it is highly doubtful that these can be considered "great resources" by anyone's standards.

are the artist's interpretation of a musical composition's structure and form originally created as individual hand painted cells within a graphic music animation. In each series, the graphics played sequentially in sync with the music, collectively reveal one or more parameters of the music's development from beginning to end. In the Bach Preludes for example, the artist interprets the harmonic/tonal structure of the composition using color coded geometric shapes and patterns timed to the music, communicating to the viewer a true sense of the music's movement and counterpoint.

Likewise in his Forrest Gump - Bird Animation Compositions and Interactive VisualMusic Teaching Modules, students learn what makes up a musical phrase as color coded birds interpret the compositions ABBA structure…. As a spin-off 3rd and 4th graders without the use of language explaining mathematical principles can and have learned basic algebra, including set and sub-set cognitive and abstract reasoning skills…

Upon several viewings laymen of all ages as well as professionals will come to recognize and identify these visual patterns with elements of the music as the eye and ear begin to make the connection, further enhancing their understanding of the composition and total VisualMusic experience!

ABOUT THE ARTIST: Michael A. Luckman, multimedia artist, classical composer, educator... recently premiered his VisualMusic works to the Tanglewood audience in Lenox MA in 2006, recieving tremendous response from an international audience of music and art lovers including world class musicians as well as respected researchers/academics frpm major institutions ... for having created a very unique merging of the visual arts and music that is quickly being recognized for it's originality and innovation as a true breakthrough in this "EXPERIENCIAL MEDIUM". "Visually I have created cell by cell - not a program, Graphic – Animated Multimedia Compositions using geometric 2D /3D shapes and colors that interpret measure by measure (in sync with the music playing), the structure and form of a musical composition.

THE ART AS A NEW NON-VERBAL COMMUNICATION MEDIUM: Luckman remarks, "During my premiere showcase last summer in Lenox, MA I was also besieged from a myriad of Educators/Researchers/Medical Professionals working with the Learning Disabled,, Autistic Alzheimers, and Brain Stroke Victims, that my unique “VisualMusic Language” has real applications with the possibility of being a breakthrough as a new medium to communicatie/reach patients afficated wiuth these diseases and possibly even assist in helping them rewire their thinking process."

La denominación de arte y/o ética intermodal o SGM (Sonido-Grafismo-Movimiento), alude a la resultante en la que desemboca la realización del ejercicio de actividades en las que el núcleo central es toda experiencia que tiene como asidero o referencia la constitución de una intrumentalidad y legalidad entresacada del proceso de elaboración de las secuencias de sonidos, esquemas gráficos y trayectorias o recorrido, que provocan la inmersión en una estimulación compleja y heterogénea al ser tratada como un proceso único que por su rapidez no es fácil de apresar conscientemente pero que se produce y manifiesta de forma natural.
