Collaboration between Sophia Brueckner and Eric Rosenbaum, who says:
My musical paintings are playable graphical scores that you touch to play melodies and harmonies. They combine visual composition, musical composition, and gestural interaction, creating a new audiovisual world to explore.
  • Touch the painting to release its music.
  • Slide your finger across it to play melodies, play chords with your palm, improvise a duet.
  • We've combined traditional painting techniques with conductive paint and capacitive touch sensing.
  • The result is a new form of visual music, combining composition and instrument into a playable score.
