leaves leave the tree and became notes
the wind became a melody
we are one song
Idea
Create melodies and generate sounds from falling leaves
plan
1. Put a music sheet near the tree.
2. The leaves from tree fall on the music sheet. (one leaf become one note)
3. Play the melody with a sound program or analog instrument.
process
analogue octave sensor, proto type _ fabric, thread, 90cm x 225 cm

Convert leaves to musical notes
play leaves music with piano
next
I will continue to develop this work. it could be developed in several way. for example, I could choice one tree and make one score everyday as if writing a diary. or I could assign trees in several different location, and put the empty fabric sheet under the trees at the same time and complete a long piece of music.
It would be also interesting to compare several musicians converting the leaves music sheet to normal music sheet and play it in their own way.
I think the analog piano sound is suitable for this project, so I will continue to play music on piano for a while. However, I would like to make a sound digitally in this project through digital programs such as processing.
