Sound Visualization Mashup: Phase 1

Song: Nothing I’ve ever known (Instrumental Version)

For this project, I chose the song Nothing I’ve ever known by Bryan Adam, the instrumental version. The song has a variety, in which it would start of with the guitar playing giving a lonely feeling slowly building up and by minute 1:05 other instruments join in giving a sense that it’s no longer lonely but hopeful or the feeling of having someone with you. In the Begining, you can say it would have smooth steady lines with curves but as it goes on the line can become into two or more with more curves maybe even sharp turns. This to show the dramatic or dynamics of the song. Then as the song reach the end it can return to one line or shape and fading into the page.

I’m not completely sure if these observations affect my understanding of the music or intention of the Artist. This is due to the song being used in the movie Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron and was only the instrumental version as the song does have lyrics to it. But while listening to the lyrics the meaning could be that the person has fallen in love and experience that feeling for the first time which becomes something they ‘have never known’ and wanting to be with them, however, the ending causes a confusion for me or a change that the person doesn’t know where this feeling will take them in the end.
