What would it be like to be a string that made music? Not anything simple, like a guitar string or a cello string, but a magical string, a sine curve that's taut then loose, that doubles then doubles again, that sheds then dissolves into showers of notes — a flaming, sighing, looping, dissolving string. Curious?
That's what we've got here, from New York's School of Visual Arts grad student Daniel Sierra . This is his masters' thesis. This is music as you might imagine it in a magical laboratory under a magical microscope. Really close in.
