I found this very interesting video of a performance artist and software engineer. He has created technology to link what he draws to sound and creates a performance for us. I could see how this might lead to other listening and drawing activities with students. To turn it around – draw what you hear.

Click this link to the video.

If anyone tries this out with students could you let us know how it goes for you?
