Reading a newspaper, I saw a picture of birds on the electric wires. I
cut out the photo and decided to make a song, using the exact location
of the birds as notes (no Photoshop edit). I knew it wasn't the most
original idea in the universe. I was just curious to hear what melody
the birds were creating.
I sent the music to the photographer, Paulo Pinto, who I Googled on
the internet. He told his editor, who told a reporter and the story
ended up as an interview in the very same newspaper.
Here I've posted a short video made with the photo, the music and the score (composed by the birds).
