This video is so simple, yet so creative, I watched it twice in a row. Eric Archer, a resident of Austin who makes music and electronic devices combined both in a brilliant experiment. He hooked up a photodiode to a video camera, transforming the electrical radiation of light sources into sounds and then went for a nice long drive in New York City, where he discovered a huge variety of different light sources, each generating a unique sound.
Like a virtual synesthesia device, his modified old 8mm film camera seem like a load of fun! Below is the video he made in late May 2010 in NYC. Let me know what you think!
