In nature, sound and color both exist as waveforms. A distinguishing characteristic between the two are their origins- sound is mechanical, it’s origins are born by vibration. By contrast, color is continuous, a phenomenon that occurs by the absorption of frequencies by an object.
This mix was a happy accident between the two. The origins of this monthly mix series were vague, but myself and Shea set out with the intention of mixing palettes to paint a sonic backdrop to whatever may be your listening experience- at work, at home, or in the car. Where sound creates, light absorbs, and our design team then took to the visual task of translating this experience.
With collaboration as our cornerstone, what we aim to offer in this release and of future in this mix series, is a digital record of our collective experiences, timely, but always relevant in any participle- past, future and present.
