I built a color/sound wheel using cocoa for artists. Basically, I'm telling the cursor to log the rgb data that it's hovering over and then trigger samples I've loaded into the resources folder based on whatever color data is logged.  The ultimate goal is to allow the user to record their own sounds and place them where they feel fit, but for now I'll be playing with my own soundfiles.   

In a current project of mine I'm trying to develop an interactive color wheel that produces sound based on RGB color data. I'm also building a sound library of different tones and effects that I hope to incorporate into some of the wheels. I think that due to the subjectiveness of a sound - emotion relationship, I may try to enable the viewer to upload their own sounds into each wheel to either prove or disprove a pattern in the relationship. I'll put up some samples soon...
