Launch Experiment
Slow? Not Working? Try it in Google Chrome.
From the Author:
Baroque.me visualizes the first Prelude from Bach's Cello Suites. Using the math behind string length and pitch, it came from a simple idea: what if all the notes were drawn as strings? Instead of a stream of classical notation on a page, this interactive project highlights the music's underlying structure and subtle shifts.
Technology:
HTML5 Canvas, Javascript, SoundManager
