1/21 Visual Beethoven

"ASCII Beethoven"
Beethoven has inspired quite alot of musicians and writers, but also many visual artists.  I posted about the 100 days project before (as well as Beethoven's own manuscript "art"), and so here's a few more interesting examples of "Beethoven-inspired" art....

"Beethoven Symphony 5" by Eduard Tomek

I wrote about my visit to the Klimt "Beethoven Frieze" in my Vienna trip account.
Gustav Klimt "Beethoven Frieze"

...and these are images of Page 1 from the "Ode to Joy" movement of Symphony 9 (in Beethoven's own hand) with some manipulations using the cool effects from www.befunky.com...






Hey - I'm an artist! ;)
