Play a Kandinsky: Google Arts & Culture Experiments


In this interactive exercise you can experiment with music using colors and shapes within Kandinsky's works. What would it be like if, like Kandinsky, you could hear a sound or music fragment with every color or shape?

The exercise offers you four options:

  1. Kandinsky: click on the color and hear the accompanying music fragment, inspired by Kandinsky;
  2. Color/shape : choose a color and/or a shape and hear which musical instrument Kandinsky linked to it;
  3. Hear the painting : click on the different music fragments hidden in Kandinsky's painting;
  4. Try it yourself : here you enter two of your own feelings and then the exercise itself composes a musical work, you can then click in the work of art and discover what the colors stand for or the different shapes.
