May has written an algorithm\u2014using a programming language for sound synthesis, called \u201cSuperCollider\u201d\u2014that determines the characteristics and timing of the sound in relation to the intervals. Taking into consideration the structure and composition of the painting, May emulates the mechanisms of painting by responding to the moir\u00e9 (wave-like) patterns, which are demonstrated via audio interference of the sine waves (known as beat frequencies) in the sound piece. The sine wave tones created are thus audio representations of the circular forms, geometric shapes, and reverberating patterns inherent within Aslanidis\u2019 piece.<\/p>\n<p>The Sonic Network series is part of an ongoing international collaboration between Aslanidis and<br \/>\nMay with installations staged at Dr Julius Gallery, Berlin in 2011, plus at New York\u2019s White Box Gallery &amp; Kunsthalle Beacon in Upstate New York during 2012. Sonic Network no.11 + a composition by Brian May is on permanent display in the Hamer Hall, Victorian Arts Centre Melbourne.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_50\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Artist-Talk-Sonic-Network-8.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-50\" data-attachment-id=\"50\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/2012\/11\/21\/sonic-network-no-8-at-substation-melbourne\/artist-talk-sonic-network-8\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Artist-Talk-Sonic-Network-8.jpg?fit=612%2C612&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"612,612\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Artist Talk Sonic Network 8\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Artist-Talk-Sonic-Network-8.jpg?fit=612%2C612&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-50\" title=\"Artist Talk Sonic Network 8\" alt=\"Artist Talk Sonic Network 8\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Artist-Talk-Sonic-Network-8.jpg?resize=300%2C300\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Artist-Talk-Sonic-Network-8.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Artist-Talk-Sonic-Network-8.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Artist-Talk-Sonic-Network-8.jpg?resize=36%2C36&amp;ssl=1 36w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Artist-Talk-Sonic-Network-8.jpg?resize=115%2C115&amp;ssl=1 115w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.brian-may.net\/sonical\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Artist-Talk-Sonic-Network-8.jpg?w=612&amp;ssl=1 612w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-50\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artist Talk Sonic Network 8<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Documentation of the Sonic Network no.8 installation at Substation, Melbourne Australia.
