When you look at an image, or a great work of art, we all tend to look at it slightly different. We interpret things in such a way that tends to move us. We even ascribe what we think the artist meant by something they did or did not do.
I find that music tends to do the same. We seem to desire to find meaning in things. So, with that in mind I wanted to combine them.
This musing is the first of many that I plan to do on this subject. You will no doubt find some that have some obvious looking mistakes to them, but don't forget, this is Flux's interpretation.
I took Song lyrics and let Flux interpret it.
The Song is called Valhalla Calling by Ragal Ironbull.
I gave flux the same song lyrics 3 times. The only changes are in the first one I asked it to put the words “Valhalla Calling” in the image. Which resulted in the cover image.
I took off the words, left the lyrics, left the aspect ratio the same and that resulted in this first image.
Then I left the same lyrics and changed the aspect ratio to a vertical one and got this image.
Here are the lyrics I used (which belong to the those who wrote them. I do not lay any claim to these lyrics. They are posted just to show where the flux model drew inspiration from.)
Calling me home through the fire and snow
Voices of a north in the cold wind blow
Shadows in the night, but the stars still glow
If I fall tonight, let the whole world know
Calling me home where the old gods stand
Through the storm and the blood red sand
The sky falls down and the rivers run slow
Hear my name in the winter snow
Yeah, run through the storm with the heart that's cold
Fire in the soul, never doing what I'm told
Raised in the north with the warriors grow
Blood on the shield when the battle horns blow
Look at the face when the rhythm collide
Thundering side when the lightning strike
Living like bulls in the dead of the night
If you stand in the way, then you better take flight
I bring the frost when I step in the zone
Voice like thunder when I'm ripping the throne
Legends rise with the brave have grown
Now the whole world here when the north wind moans
Oh, warrior heart never fall apart
Oh, through the storm, we are reborn
Calling me home
Through the fire and snow (Through the fire and snow)
Voices of the north (In the north)
In the cold wind blow
Shadows in the night
But the stars still glow (But the stars still glow)
If I fall tonight, let the whole world know
Calling me home where the old gods stand
Through the storm and the blood red sand
If the sky falls down and the rivers run slow
Hear my name in the winter snow
