British Film Crew Helps You See Sounds

We’ve all heard Skin Graft P go on and on about synesthesia and how N.E.R.D was so blown away by it that they decided to title their third LP, Seeing Sounds. Now, here at Complex the jury is still out on whether or not we believe you can actually see sounds'unless you’re tweakin’ on that good kush'but it did get us thinking. What if you really could see sounds? What would they look like to you? British film collective Semiconductor has a couple ideas.

For their short film, “Magnetic Movie” Semiconductor members Ruth Jarman and Joe Gerhardt created a series of animations to bring to life a bunch of audio recordings they made of magnetic fields. The result is pretty crazy and not just because we think on an, um… higher level. The movie won Best Film at Cutting Edge at the 2008 British Animation Awards. Hit the jump to watch “Magnetic Movie” and head over to Semiconductor’s site to check out more of their short film works.
