If earlier it was architecture that was called "frozen music", but now this poetic definition can also migrate to photography. And this is due to the work of a Canadian photographer. Benjamin von Wongwho wrote down music trackusing as tools thirty Nikon SLR cameras … British show group STOMP has taught the world that music can be played with literally any object that comes to hand, including your own body. This understanding is used by modern creative people who create musical works with beer bottles, an excavator, a roller, a sewing machine and other imaginable and inconceivable things.
And a group of Canadian enthusiasts, led by photographer Benjamin von Von, recorded the music video using cameras. To do this, Toronto residents used thirty different Nikon SLR cameras, the total cost of which was $ 30,000.
However, not only cameras, but also some other accessories were used as musical instruments. In the video titled Nikon Symphony, you can hear the sound of a camera flash triggering, beeping when navigating the camera menu, and a few other types of specific noises that are well known to any photographer.
The result is a 37-second Nikon Symphony video, which you can easily download to your audio player and listen to from time to time. It will be especially pleasant for photographers for whom the sound of a shutter is the most pleasant soundtrack in the world.
The music, recorded with thirty Nikon cameras and other photo accessories, repeats a melody specially written by one of the authors of the video, which can also be played by traditional musical instruments.
