For the task this week we had to draw out a score based on a piece we’ve made already, with the aim that it could be interpreted and performed by someone else. In all honesty I think I terribly misinterpreted the task, and instead of drawing out a score I drew out the performance setup for how I would do it myself. As a result I completely missed the point, but I’m still happy with the idea I came up with.
I won’t go into much detail about this idea because at this moment it is not really relevant, but the concept of having treble, bass and middle frequencies interacting with the space in different ways is something that I feel I could develop moving forward with the projects. The high end could have the most movement because within spatial sound the higher frequencies tend to have the most impact when they are panned around the speakers, as opposed to bass tones where the wavelength is too long to create a real sense of movement.
I also feel like the idea of having a multichannel setup in a rave or club environment could be interesting, and as this is sound arts I feel as though deconstructing the core principles of dance music and subverting the expectation of what a rave ‘should be’ would lead to some intriguing results.
