Mona Lisa is perhaps the most famous painting in the world. Its uniqueness is due to the techniques used by da Vinci, like the pyramid organization of the elements and the way he played with light. If I was given the chance, would I hang it in my home? No, not in a million years! Why? Because it's horrendous and it doesn't go with the furniture, anyway... I prefer Mark Rothko's splashes of colour. More than just going with the furniture, they go well with life, they go well with me :)
What if we could also see music in bright colours? When I had piano lessons, everytime I was given a new musical score I enjoyed making up a story and characteres for each voice. By looking at the musical score we can kind of see the sound, but like this it's fun and easier. We can see the sounds running, playing hide and seek, bouncing up and down, drawing circles, imitating each other or just doing whatever your imagination dictates. It's a bit like looking at the clouds on a (portuguese) summer day. What about closing our eyes and just listen to the music? Well... that's not bad either :)
