This paper investigates perceptual relationships between art in the auditory and visual domains. First, we conducted a behavioral experiment asking subjects to assess similarity between 10 musical recordings and 10 works of abstract art. We found a significant degree of agreement across subjects as to which i mages correspond to which audio, even though neither the audio nor the images possessed semantic content. Secondly, we sought to find the relationship between audio and images within a defined feature space that correlated with the subjective similarity judgments.
