Jarbas Agnelli's Birds on the Wires0
Posted by - In Art, Music, Randomness
Remember that post I made with the guy making music by using the tree? Well this is just as cool. Jarbas Agnelli came up with an idea while reading his newspaper. He saw a picture of birds on the electric wires, and decided to cut it out and use the birds placement as music notes. Quite inventive, I thought.
Check the video here (on vimeo), to see/hear the final outcome.
Reading a newspaper, I saw a picture of birds on the electric wires. I cut out the photo and decided to make a song, using the exact location of the birds as notes (no Photoshop edit). I knew it wasn’t the most original idea in the universe. I was just curious to hear what melody the birds were creating.
I sent the music to the photographer, Paulo Pinto, who I Googled on the internet. He told his editor, who told a reporter and the story ended up as an interview in the very same newspaper.
Here I’ve posted a short video made with the photo, the music and the score (composed by the birds).
