Green and Yellow From The Temple of Audiovisual Colour
Green and Yellow is an audiovisual digital art object by Massimo Magee, designed to be read by the computer as both a visual still image and as a piece of audio, these being two readings of the same file. It is made from raw pure colour data run through a feedback DJ mixer.
It is part of the Temple of Audiovisual Colour series.
The piece was shaped across visual and audio domains functionally simultaneously, meaning that a change in the visual also affected the audio and vice versa. When you look at the visual reading, you are seeing all of the data including the audio; when you listen to the audio reading, you are hearing all of the data including the visual. While human observers require separate visual and audio readings, only the computer can perceive the whole piece in its natural state as one file with both audio and visual aspects. For this NFT, the visual and audio readings have been re-combined into a video file.
