Raga Marwa is a short animated video that explores the art of visual music to an interpretation of an Indian classical work. Based on the piano composition written and performed by John Barham, a trailing dot appears and fades as each note is stuck. The dots interact in fluid sequences in harmony with the music. The Marwa raga is an evening melody, characterized by melancholy and pathos, combined with a longing and passion that makes it a highly emotive sound-scape. John Barham is a British musician well known for his work in interpreting Indian music for western instruments and worked with Ravi Shankar, George Harrison and many other musicians.

The Moonlight Surfer is an animated video created to a musical composition written and performed for this work by Wilfred Kozub. Using one to four abstract forms as the basic graphic elements, they interact in a fluid sequence synchronized to the music. The video attempts to rise above its minimal graphic form and evoke the sensual feel of the music.
