Everything you see is sound. Everything you hear is photography.

An interview with Jeff Louviere and Vanessa Brown, otherwise known as Louviere + Vanessa who created the album Resonantia which includes unique visualizations made by photographing water vibrating at the frequencies of musical notes. There is a twelve frame animation that can be viewed by placing the included praxinoscope mirror on the album to reflect images etched in the vinyl.

The photos were also turned back into sound using Photosounder. Another site with a bit more technical info on the process of making the images.

Sound visualization previously with Louviere + Vanessa.

Those are amazing. Ernst Chladni would be jealous.

This is great! I still don't understand the whole process so I guess I need to re-read the site.
