Artist Ranjit Bhatnagar has proposed an art installation that takes the ambient noise from a room or a recorded piece of video and translates it into music with found objects. The demo video shows a simplified version learning the 'song' beneath a clip from Citizen Kane. The final project will loop each improvisation it learns and create compositions from it, and the artists promises that when he puts the installation in, he'll use found objects for the instruments from whatever location he's at.
So: Anyone in Santa Cruz want to make an offer on this, stat?
