Frequencies are heard vibrating inside of our minds, bodies and souls, and these sensations influence spiritual experiences of the world. Spiritual Vinyl Spectrographs visualizes the religious experiences of sound by dripping paint onto vinyl records in order to illustrate the beauty and extrasensory splendor of religious sounds. The history of audio recording and engineering gives religious music new implications and availability because the religious practitioners do not need to be physically present to engage in the sound. Some argue that this makes spirituality more present throughout our every day lives, whereas others reason that the novelty and intimacy of live performance in religious settings is more powerful, and that this experience is often lost because of the convenience of recordings. By creating a physical mixed media spectrograph of the frequencies of the recorded religious music, this work intends to visualize the audial, sensorial experience of the religious practitioner. Religious artwork that highlights the divine, beatific aspects of sound and music encourages respect and appreciation of the  charm of other religions and promotes open-mindedness because there is a similar yet unique beauty in each auditory experience of these spiritual sounds. 

Measuring out different levels of paint to match the frequencies and tones heard in the song Om Jai Jagadesh Hare, a popular Hindu song, to make the vinyl canvas representing how the invention of sound recording has altered Hindu religious musical experience.
