. The bachelor thesis investigates the connection between the audio and visual relationship of a musical instrument and the light display of the emitted tones. In this thesis I analyze the connection between the perception of light and tones. For this I was inspired by the neurological phenomenon of synesthesia, which occurs when two or more human senses work together .
. The second aspect of the work is its technical treatment, in which I am concerned with the programming of the musical instrument and the individual tones to the respective light sources in the space. The chosen technique offers the viewer the possibility of perception, which for one may be a mere fantasy, but for another a reality .
