Title: Sound Synthesis from Real-Time Video Images

Abstract: Images and video have been used in the past in various ways to produce music and sound. I will present a paper that follows a novel approach. The paper demonstrates a method to control sound spectra in real time using digital video as the control. 32 harmonics are controlled in several different synthesized voices. This allows a performer to manipulate timbre in a way not possible with acoustic instruments.
