About

The Art Of Mixing Visualizer Parodies refers to exploitable memes about visuals from David Gibson's 1997 book "The Art Of Mixing." The book featured images showing different components of a track laid out within a 3D space in the form of circles labeled as "Bass," "Hi Hat," "Snare," "Guitar" and so on. The image is sometimes edited to show the spheres representing different humorous sounds, like cowbells or ad-libs.

Origin

David Gibson released his book "The Art Of Mixing: A Visual Guide to Recording," on July 1st, 1997. He subsequently made a video representing his ideas, reposted to YouTube[1] by TVHomeStudio on Mar 26th, 2012, where it gathered over 3 million views in twelve years (seen below).

The aforementioned YouTube video was reposted to Reddit[2] on July 13th, 2018 by an unknown Redditor, with a since-deleted response showing a still from the instructional video. The post gathered over 2,000 upvotes in five years (seen below).
