鱿鱼可以利用色素细胞迅速改变它们的身体颜色，这些色素细胞由通过神经传输的电信号控制。作者将鱿鱼的皮肤变成了一个名为Chromatophony的音频可视化器，这是通过向皮肤发送一个组成音乐的电子音调信号来实现的。虽然Chromatophony的外观类似于计算机生成的图像，但它是基于一种具有彩色马赛克显示的自然现象。通过对色素细胞与像素的比较，作者从生物艺术理论的角度提出了“活图像”来拓展视觉表达的潜力。
Squids can rapidly change their body color using chromatophores that are controlled by electrical signals transmitted through nerves. The authors transform a squid’s skin into an audio visualizer calledChromatophony.This is accomplished by sending an electric tone signal composed as music to the skin. AlthoughChromatophony’sappearance is similar to that of computer-generated images, it is based on a natural phenomenon with a colorful mosaic display. By comparing chromatophores with pixels, the authors propose Living Images to expand the potential of visual expression from the perspective of bioart theory.
