Chromatophone Etudes for 4 chromatophones Sound design, graphic scores: Jarek Kordaczuk Realized under the scholarship of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage Color and sound Chromatophoneintermedia color and sound workshopsChromatofon is a prototype device built of RGB color sensor and software that translates the read colors into sounds. Workshop participants read the colors of the pictures they have painted earlier by dragging chromatophones over their surface. In this way, these images become a source of sound, and the sequence of readings of their colorful content could be called a musical utterance. When workshop participants take color readings (in musical terminology: they play chromatophones) in accordance with the composer's instructions, we can talk about the performance of a musical piece. The composer's hints are included in the symbols displayed on the screen (type of graphic score). As part of the workshop, four such pieces are performed based on pictures painted by participants. Each of the pieces uses four chromatophones and serves as an exercise in playing new instrument (etude). According to musical terminology, it can be said that Jarek Kordaczuk's work "Etudes for 4 chromatophones" is being performed.Workshop instructors:Jarek KordaczukIzabela Kościesza Sensor programming:Jarek KordaczukElectronic design:Artur Grzybek A piece of music performed as part of the workshop:Jarek Kordaczuk, Etudes for 4 chromatophonesEtude I / Etude II / Etude III / Etude IVColors used for painting the pictures:Paints Maimeri Acrilico537 carbon black510 cool grey266 red transparent370 cobalt blue light492 burnt umber116 primary yellow339 permanent green light462 per. violet reddish light213 provence rose lake117 golden yellowRealized under the scholarship of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage of Poland ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sonokinetic Incident Factory Izabela Kościesza Sonokinetic works Małgosia Wawruk Sensor matrix Experimental music Installations Coral music Solo pieces Improvised music Acousmatic music Electronic Music Monoctone Pieces for children Jarek Kordaczuk mp3 Dark Energy Agnieszka Kołodyńska Pantomime Electroacoustic music Vocal-instrumental music Instrumental Music Musical interpretations of fairy tales Compositions Adam Smoczyński Sacred Music EWI ProForma Theatrical music Jan Brzechwa Julian Tuwim Sebastian Wypych Poetic song Sung poetry Jarosław Kordaczuk Arrangements Videoclips Animations Titelituralia Onomatopeic compositions Theatre of Sound A Room Full of Fairy Tales Children's Art Centre Cezary Konrad Krzysztof Herdzin Basia Raduszkiewicz Music for children
