this is a good way to understand functions. waves are functions, which follow the rules described in the beginning. It must always move in one X direction (usually positive) There is no breakage per one function, and can move essentially infinitely positive or negatively in the Y direction. Functions CANNOT have multiple X values per Y values (i.e., moving backwards, like trying to draw a circle), which can be tested by the vertical line test (if any X point on the graph contains more than 1 Y value, where a vertical line can hit two points on the graph), where it fails as a function if applicable.

Xennakis did this with his architectural-mathematical-graphical works as did Messiaen and Stockhausen in the 1950's.

[@_BangDroid_]

You'd need the original wav files for it to work best, similar to oscilloscope music by Jerobeam Fenderson. It doesn't work well after transcoding and compression, for example the audio of this video itself has the waveform distorted, it's missing all DC offset. The cow is still vaguely legible, but more complex shapes will suffer even more. Spectrogram art is easy to find once you know what to listen for, I once found a scannable QR code in an audio spectrogram.

[@shmagiggywokka]

Late to the party, but on the off chance you see this, I wanted to say that this video immediately made me think of a 2002 CG animation called Tim Tom. They use sound waves in there in a way that could easily be gamified. It's the animation that got me interested in CG animation (as opposed to Claymation which is what I was studying at the time) as well as the music of Django Reinhardt. Only a few minutes long, and definitely worth a watch.

Thank you. Yes, I'm familiar. I played around with oscilloscope art a little before those guys exploded onto the scene. I never made anything very good or interesting, and I never made my things sound like anything. I'm glad they really pushed the art form. So cool. I'm also an owner of an old Vectrex game system, and there's a rather active homebrew community for that machine.

[@Omelett01]

[@Mequalspi]

I'm fairly certain it would be better to do this via first applying a symmetric envelope according to the net height of the image, and then applying a time-varying DC offset to align everything. You'd need to do this programmatically rather than in Audacity, though, as far as I know. By applying two separate envelopes for the positive/negative sides of the waveform, you're creating a discontinuity in the slope of the wave at the zero-crossing, which will result in harmonic artifacts.

[@japhyriddle]

You're absolutely right in every way. Very clearly stated as well. The methods I used were definitely not the 'right' way to do something like this, but they were done with the tools I had at my disposal.

And that included evergreen trees laid down, jet engines and funky clouds. I sometimes had a figure in front of me that I looked at for a moment and played with to see what I could do with it. I never did as you did, but it was sometimes like looking for shapes in the clouds and being able to build onto them or cut into new shapes. Of course changing the shape meant changing the audio, not much time to make new files and do that when doing an article. Thanks for posting this video. 😊

1:20 in and im starting to feel like this is a "turning a sphere inside out" video... im curious of this is satire or actual information

[@paulmeynell8866]

That’s brilliant , I’m glad I’m not the only one who spends loads of time doing pointless fun things. Great job well done

[@VeryRareEgg]

Is this showing up on EVERYONES recommendations now? It’s been 4 years I’m surprised something of this quality didn’t show up earlier

[@tsuwaque]

Reminds me of Patrick Feaster's research on sounds recorded as waveforms that dated back as far as the 1850s, and "fake" waveforms that were never meant to br played: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ina2nJtpnb1opa8 Very cool stuff.

I saw this years ago. It's amazing! Thank you for reminding me.

[@japhyriddle]

You are not tripping. That accidentally made its way into the video. Good eye. Very few people have noticed it, or at least said something about it.

[@Trshoft57ROBLOX]

i thought it was ghost and pacman

It's pretty weird, right?

[@ambergreen2798]

All I can think of is that one meme where Dazai plays a song video using his heartbeat

[@gwenhwyfarsdottir]

Thank you youtube algorithm for putting this in my recommended, as someone who (on rare occasions) uses audacity for work related purposes, this was really fun to watch 😁

[@japhyriddle]

Glad you enjoyed it.

Love KZbin, this video is 5 years old, and in 4&1/2 years it gained 15k and then it’s 6 months for some reason it’s gained 2.9 million…

this is uncanny. about a decade ago, I used to wonder if it would be possible to "draw" a sound wave in a program, to see what it would sound like. i found some program linked in an ancient forum, and played around with it, drawing lines. but it all sounded awful, I forgot which program it was, and never came back to it. I have near zero understanding of how sound waves work. suddenly, youtube suggested this video to me, and it's what i had wanted to do, but taken to a wonderful high-quality conclusion. I really have no clue how you made that wave sound like a moo, but I loved it!!!!!
