| | + | <blockquote>The radio station 88.4 FM is constantly broadcasting the artwork we have created with the SSTV and FM Transmit- ter. We recorded the SSTV sounds of each one of the images, and made a long play with all of the sounds, so people can tune in the 88,4 FM and start receiving the images through a SSTV software. Also, it’s possible to apply effects to the broadcast image by a live sound effect app running on the smartphone that is being used as the sound source. This live effects will change the way the image is broadcast each time, it's possible to mix images, change patterns and create new compositions by playing with the APP.</blockquote> |

| − | '''The project works by taking an image and converted its colors to audio. That data is then converted into radio waves which are fired off at the moon. Today, they’re adding to the concept by sending radio waves processed from kids’ artwork to bounce amongst moon rocks and craters in what the artists call Visual Art Moonbounce.'''

| − | <blockquote>We did this experiment to extract the SSTV sound from each color of the color wheel (primary and secondary only). After having the pure sound of each color, we mixed it with Audacity (sound mixing software) to see if we could create new images compositions through the color’s sounds. Then we broadcast this new mixes to get the new image on the SSTV software. The results were not very exciting visually because the software makes one sound for a line, so the only kind of composition possible was one line each color.
