Liquid Music

[edit]

Liquid Music is a form of visual music which Ilya Nikkolai began developing in 1992. It is characterized by flowing, organic shapes and patterns and involves simultaneously occurring layers of music. [citation needed]

Ilya has said of Liquid Music that he feels

"...as if I have landed on a new and unexplored Continent full of exciting possibilities. The Continent is within. The language is not of The Word and Ideas and Beliefs, but that of Light, Colour and the Eternal Movement of Creation."[2]
