Jazz is Art, Art is Jazz

The objective of this assignment was to build a visual metaphor using multimedia. Music supplied a just in time composition for this assignment that combined the worlds of art, jazz and cutting edge technology.

Ted Nash is the visionary composer with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra who visualized the masters of art, Monet, Dali and others as various movements in Portraits in Seven Shades.

Ted Nash's muse envelops art, music and visual technology with enchantment. The liner notes are available as a brilliant digital magazine interpretation. See the side bar on this page for the information links for what is certain to become the iMagazine solution for Apple's iPad. The ability to view the various paintings as full size readable pages is a major advancement over the microscopic liner notes we typically see slid into the front of a CD jewel case.
