Hi,
Can anyone think of a way to automate the creation of a music track from
the metadata embedded in an image track?
I haven't worked with metadata yet, but did some experiments in
sonification. Here is what I would do:
Analyse the format of EXIF data. What is actually encoded? What is
varying from image to image, camera to camera? Try to get a fair sample
size to see the data.
Try to convert the data to numbers, that can be interpreted as notes,
frequency, duration, volume. If not all parameters can be set, then use
some sane defaults.
Have fun,
Thomas
