This Musical Performance Creates A Singularity

The digital playground of YouTube is the destination for many examples where the synergy of real life and technology delightfully collide, and sometimes in breathtaking fashion in capturing the heart and the mind.

With the user-friendly access to millions of videos literally available at the swipe of a fingertip, the amount of high quality productions in existence is utterly mind boggling. One expressive channel which thrives in the interface, because of the presence of HD audio and video, is of course musical performance, as the basic anatomy of song can be expressed through sound and a visual presence.

User Patrik Pietschmann, who may as well be a household name and a member of the new age of trend setting digital composers, was able to upload this majestic and ethereal version of the theme to the motion picture Interstellar, originally written by Hans Zimmer. The split screen shot between the beautifully played notes and an animated representation of the sounds, displays the power of music on both an audio and logical level. The most interesting aspect of the digital performance is that all of the notes are played on white keys and the score is completed in the absence of any sharps or chords, making it a truly amazing representation of the innovative world of the present. YouTube is a true source of undiscovered treasures.
