Abstract

We propose a new method to realize the media conversion between music and image according to the feeling. In this research, we have focused on color combination and corresponded the affect evoked from music with color combination in subjective assessment. As the result, the affective mapping table between music and color combination has been obtained and the reliability of the obtained mapping table has been verified in the viewpoint of media conversion. The selected color combinations based on the mapping table evoke the affect like the musical affect: the maximum concordance rate between music and color combination is 70%. In this research, it is clarified that (1) musical affect and color affect have strong similarity each other, and (2) color combination can be applied to the sophisticated media conversion between music and image.
