Sonògraf
The Sonògraf isn’t the first instrument to turn images into sounds, but it probably does it better than any you’ve ever seen. You draw pictures on a sheet of paper, and a camera captures that image. A line scrolls across the screen, playing its notes and sounds as it scrapes across the page. You can adjust that playback using a series of physical controls, and thanks to video and audio outputs, it makes for performances that bridge the gap between audio and visual art like never before.
