His intuition of the analogy between vibrations in tone and vibrations in light led him to imagine the KEYWORDS Pythagoras first explored the notion of synesthesia around 500 BC. The lessons from these experiments can be applied to computer animation, human-computer interface and the aesthetics of time-varying light. These applications are visual instruments that allow immediate understanding of a dynamic system, but point towards infinite challenges in their mastery as any good artistic medium. Several experiments in using pure human movement as the interface to dynamic abstract systems are presented with the goal of creating phenomenological interfaces that engage the unconscious mind directly. Computer graphics has leapt forward to embrace three-dimensional texture mapped imagery, but stepped over the broad aesthetic terrain of two-dimensional interactive dynamic abstraction.
