Visual Syntax: Narrative
Effect of music & visuals in combination: Assignment of “mood music” function to music, ie the music providing backcloth to the visual narrative

Visual Syntax: Epic
Effect of music & visuals in combination: “Musicalisation” of visuals, ie the visuals primarily re-inforcing musical experience by synaesthetic “translation” and emulation of musical experiential qualities.
