[Frameworks] films about solfege

[Pip Chodorov]

Hi Amanda,
My film CHARLEMAGNE 2 PILTZER is based on the 
diminished 5th, harmonics and dissonance in tonal 
intervals and flickering of opposite colors. The 
color wheel is an illusion since color perception 
is based on the sensitivity of three types of 
cone in the retina. Therefore the opposition 
between red and green, for example, is 
biological. The circle of fifths in music is also 
a biological illusion. The film studied this 
effect by relating flicker between opposite 
colors to Charlemagne Palestine's use of 
intervals like the diminished fifth to create 
dissonance and harmonic frequencies: we hear 
tones that are not being played, we see colors 
that are not on the film strip.
Pip
