The parameter brightness was used to create an atmospheric sound that does not undergo any sudden changes. Long lasting notes with echo were chosen to create a general atmosphere. | The parameter brightness was used to create an atmospheric sound that does not undergo any sudden changes.

The software takes the RGB values of the picture, adds them and divides them by 3 which gives the general brightness of the picture. This value is transformed to a midi compatible value to create a sound using a synthesizer software. | The software takes the RGB values of the picture, adds them and divides them by 3 which gives the general brightness of the picture.

The tracking works well for videos with only one moving object. The problem of jumping cross hairs is increased when there are more moving objects but although the sound does not reflect the direction of movement anymore, it reflects the intensity of movement. | The tracking works well for videos with only one moving object.

Furthermore the approach can be seen as a possibility to perceive something within the picture that is not directly visible to the eye. A slight change in the brightness of the picture for example can be heard much easier than seen. This way a further development of the approach could be used to help perceiving microscopic images, possibly even in a scientific way. | Furthermore the approach can be seen as a possibility to perceive something within the picture that is not directly visible to the eye.
