Transform visual content into sound. Video -> Sound is an artistic experimentation lab that analyzes your videos to extract synthetic, random sounds that are rigorously synchronized with the image. The algorithm reacts to the video feed to compose procedural soundscapes, making each playback unique. Designed for artists, designers, and the curious, this tool is a completely free playground, created to explore the boundaries between the generative and the sensory.
