Ichographs uses a colour to audio frequency algorithm to investigate the connections between classical aesthetics and the digital practice, revealing a latent version of the old masterpiece. The final artwork is a captivating amalgamation of the old painting and the modern abstraction methods, a harmonious dialog between the old and the new, the analogue and the digital.  Through his practice Kranidiotis allows us to engage with painting, colour and sound, in a captivating audiovisual process. New harmonies are created, orchestrating new interactions of the past with the future, while unleashing new narrative pathways for the interaction of painting with technology.
