Resources from music concrete theory.

2. 6 groups of noises / sounds;
1.) Roars , thundering, explosions, hissing, bangs, booms
2.) Whistling, hissing, puffing
3.) Whispers, mummers, mumbling, muttering, gurgling
4.) Screeching, creaking, rustling, buzzing, crackling, scraping
5.) Noises obtained by beating on a metals, woods, skins, stones, pottery etc.
6.) Voices from animals and people; shouts, screams, shrieks, wails, hoots, death
rattles, sob.
This helps me in covering all aspects of the groups of noises which are suitable to use for my
project. This also can splits the range of sounds which I can use to define my chosen category
in the most successful way.
It also can transit into digetic and non digetic sounds, even though sound is invisible I can try
to develop a story of scenery by what typically goes on in the category I have chosen. E.g.
Outdoors sounds could be people walking around and background noises (group 2) which a
dramatic event could happen (group 1) which could create escapism and interest in my track
and there is a dilemma waiting to be solved.
3. When recording into sounds (group 3) I can
explore into transferring the sound into a
aspect of imagery, meaning that does a
sound fit into a certain story e.g. Everyday
life? And does it mostly have the
stereotypical sound of being indoors or
outdoors or in a certain environment?
4. Was a French composer, writer, broadcaster, engineer, musicologist and
acoustician of the 20th century. His innovative work in both the sciences
—particularly communications and acoustics— and the various arts of
music, literature and radio presentation after the end of World War II, as
well as his anti-nuclear activism and cultural criticism garnered him
widespread recognition in his lifetime
5. Was a German composer, musicologist, and historian and critic of music.
One of his beliefs is that phonography could exist without music having been
created by an instrument.
I do agree with this statement. Music is a layer upon different sounds which are
practically or digitally processed by the person / artist.
I think that it projects a story of the artists interest but which can interact with and
interpret into being in the form music. Music can be a form of a person’s expression
and feeling. Its describing their intentions on what they felt depending on the
moment in time or what they describe about the elements they have experienced and
see it in their own perception.
Music can be read upon how the person encounters and judges upon it. This pretty
much relates in the music concrete aspects, as it being a form of music or is it just a
surface being hit by an object or vibration?
However people take a view it is still a form of expression, its the popularity and
majority of people thinking which can lead it into a genre of the form of music and
that the artist focuses on that goal (which I need to do).
This concludes to my project as music concrete is a different interpretation on music.
I need to illustrate that my project is in the concepts of music and there is a story in
the way I have presented my project.
This will help me with my problem solving skills and also my evaluation, recapping on
progress throughout my project and make my decision more in depth and detailed.
This therefore will give me a two sided argument which I can both answer if occur.
Editor's Notes
I am focusing upon the history of famous people and how they changed the face of music concrete. By this I am researching the techniques from establishers and therefore generating the defined recongisation of the different techniques and instruments in music concrete which helps me towards the EXS 24 and overall project when developing my track. This presentation aims to enhance more ideas and expand my creativity.
Also taking account into Apponlinares work I can also take 3 recordings form the selected microphone in different positions and see if they are recognisable and which is more effective to my project, as said the distance of the sound is what portrays the emotion in time.
The main techniques from Schaeffer is gramophones, pitch changing, and groove locking. The intensity of the sound which is being projected and in which way of the audience imaginations encounters it. I need to teach them what my message is. These techniques will help me create a various sound and give me decisions on the sound being accurate, measured, and effective. In the tape aspects, the techniques will relay upon cut and splicing, reverse, pitch change, and overdub. This will create a overall feel of the sounds intensity and bring a professional edge to my overall performance of the final mix.So taking this into my understandment towards techniques I need to take into consideration of;1.) Alteration and Transformation over time. 2.) Transformation of the texture and timbre of the project. 3.) Spatialsation of localization of sounds in the physical space as a compensational.
This slide is demonstrating the critical aspect which may occur in my project and a variety of ways in which I can encounter and answer if they do occur. I think this will make my work more knowledgeable in the 360 aspects of advantages and disadvantages, how they occur, who does it effect and how does it effect me to change. This should make me more likely to answer with correct understandment of the problem being assessed and therefore making my project look more professional and well structured.
