del.icio.us #1: shape of song

the link

This project, "The Shape of Song", is an interesting reflection of my own train of thought concerning my own project. What it does is it takes a song and shows the recurring patterns within the given song, in a very pretty way.

What I'm trying to do is the reverse. So, I guess that would make it "The Song of Shape"

One difficulty in the reverse effect is that the pattern (the shape) is not a fully functioning notation of the music, it simply highlights the patterns within the song--what goes on inside these patterns is not represented, an empty shell of music...poetic really
