Music and visual artwork are a valuable part of our daily life. Since both media induce
human emotion, this thesis demonstrates how to convert music into visual artwork such
as generative art. Especially, the project shows the method of connecting music emotion
to the theme of colour. This thesis describes the human emotional model based on
arousal and valence. Also, this thesis explains how colour affects our emotion. In order to
connect music emotion into the colour theme, this thesis shows the method to retrieve
music information which includes arousal and valence of the music. In order to generate
visual artwork from the music, this thesis demonstrates the implementation of working
software that integrates music emotion and musical characteristics such as frequency
analysis. Besides, this thesis presents how to apply generative artwork into our daily life
products. This thesis discusses learning outcomes from the project based on
practice-based research methodology. Also, this thesis introduces a further plan related
to AI
