In undertaking this project, I initially had no idea how I was going to procure the data from music to create the symbols so I met with my friend and aspiring programmer and artist Louis Eguchi seeking advice on how to go about this. Before long, him and his brother Nat (also a programmer and artist, with whom Louis often collaborates) had started writing me a custom application called Music Sampler, which takes measurements of sound levels from .mp3 files at specified intervals and writes them to a spreadsheet.
This neat app allowed me to be flexible in my experimentation with representing this data, as opposed to an automated generative system.
