My wife - a flautist - has a tendency to describe music in terms of colors. This concept is surprisingly difficult for my simpleton brain to comprehend, but I won't allow that to get in my way! Using midi files from my favorite video game - Banjo Kazooie - I colorized the melody in each song as described below:
- Color: The note, where higher notes are purple shifted, lower notes are red shifted
- Width: How long the note is played
- Intensity: Striking force of note, where softer notes are whiter
- White: Silence
