To feel the emotional force of music, we experience it aurally. But
how can we convey musical understanding visually? Visualizing Music
explores the art of communicating about music through images.
Drawing on principles from the fields of vision science and
information visualization, Eric Isaacson describes how graphical
images can help us understand music. By explaining the history of
music visualizations through the lens of human perception and
cognition, Isaacson offers a guide to understanding what makes
musical images effective or ineffective and provides readers with
extensive principles and strategies to create excellent images of
their own. Illustrated with over 300 diagrams from both historical
and modern sources, including examples and theories from Western
art music, world music, and jazz, folk, and popular music,
Visualizing Music explores the decisions made around image
creation. Together with an extensive online supplement and dozens
of redrawings that show the impact of effective techniques,
Visualizing Music is a captivating guide to thinking differently
about design that will help music scholars better understand the
power of musical images, thereby shifting the ephemeral to
material.
