Two-thirds of every thousand children born, are born with the inability to hear in one ear or both (NIDCD, 2015). There have been studies that music education has a strong connection with academic achievement. Cymatic Lighting or “visual sound” uses lighting to give cues as to the characteristic of sound. Qualities of sound such as frequency and bountifulness are mapped to similar qualities of luminance and chromaticity via algorithms (De Bastion, 2014).
Through the CymaSpace Technology Program, they are currently developing hardware & resolution to intelligently translate audio into light &, sound can be seen & perceived, not just heard (De Bastion, 2014).
