May I paint you a playlist?
« on: May 01, 2012, 02:02:52 PM »
 I have to do at least 10 pieces of art for my grad project, each with a "special meaning", and I've decided I want it to be music-inspired. I've already done Opeth's Burden, Agalloch's Fire Above, Ice Below, and A Boy and a Girl by Eric Whitacre, and I'm currently working on a piece inspired by Anathema's Untouchables.

HOWEVER. All of the above are/were for a grade, and graded pieces are not allowed to be a part of my grad portfolio. Since I sadly have little motivation to finish a piece if it's not assigned, I'm asking if you'll take up the teacher's job and request songs for me to interpret.

Is anyone down?

I've always found Osmosis by Liquid Tension Experiment pretty fascinating. Any good?

Definitely! I'll try to get them done as fast as I can. They'll most likely be in varying sizes and mediums, so I might get some done faster than others.

I'm being serious. I'd be interested to see the difference between the ethereal Anathema and Agolloch vs. whatever would happen with CC.

Its why I picked it.  With all the atmospheric pretentious hipster indie bullshit I figured I'd pick something fun to break it up. :neverusethis:

But really, I'm excited to see the results of all your requests.  This is a cool idea.  :caffeine:

This sounds really cool.  Given my preferences in music though, any suggestions I could muster may not work out so well.  I don't think there's any way to tastefully and artistically reinterpret "She Loves My Cock" by Jackyl.  :lol

Wow, that's really cool! I'd really love to see the result of your interpretation of Untouchable by Anathema.

Hey, if you want me to interpret it, no problem. The pieces most likely won't have much to do with the lyrics anyway :lol

Haha, nah, that's okay.  Other people have suggestions that are far better suited to this kind of thing, but it sounds really cool.
