Music and nature: Birds on a wire
This is from 2009, but is worth a watch.
(on edit: from the YouTube posting:
Reading the newspaper one morning, I saw this picture of birds on the electric wires. I cut out the photo and decided to make a song, using the exact location of the birds as notes. I was just curious to hear what melody the birds were creating.
This work was made over the original photo, un-retouched, published in one of the biggest Brazilian newspapers, "O Estado de São Paulo" on 27/aug/2009, and shot by Paulo Pinto (note: I just erased the birds for effect at the end, but didn't change their positions at all. What would be the point?).
I've made this short video to demonstrate my interpretation of the birds as notes.
Music made with Logic.
Video made with After Effects.
