Following Work of Art Week 2
Here is the blog post for this week's challenges Some seriously awesome stuff up there!
So, this week was an interesting week for me. As you can see from the challenge, and if you watch the show (which you should be), this week had to incorporate used technology. What the frell am I going to do with that as a musician, and one who isn't recording acoustic (at least for now)? So I decided to try "found sound" type stuff. Once I had the medium figured out, I had to decide on a subject, and my friend oceancurrents had a post about the East Asian belief of red string connecting people who are destrined to be soul mates and get married. Wow! COOL!
OK, so I took that, wrote some music to that theme, and combined it with some thunder, a reading of this poem, and it became this: http://www.newtonmusic.com/work_of_art/invis_red_string.mp3 (you will have to click, I can't be bothered to embed today ;-)
Hope you enjoy! I can't wait to find out what is next!
