Filters in Pictures
Filters in Music
What is the fascination with the Hipstamatic camera app?
A fuzzy, hazy, replica of the original picture?
Why is that interesting?
It is the interpretation of the original that holds the appeal -
If a person wants to see (or hear) the original
then simply get the original, however -
As a filter changes a picture by its nature
So a person's life will change a piece of music is performed
What shadows does it cause?
What pauses does the performer use?
What contrasts can be seen?
What volumes are used?
Black and white?
Red? Blue? Mist?
That's the appeal -
What does the music do to you, but -
What do you do to the music?
