My initial research for the aural cultures paper I am creating on the splayed movement, was going back to a video a friend of mine had made, of the first London ‘Splayworld’ show I had put on with my friend Tony Bontana, as well as the video for the second Splayworld show.

During the class crit, hearing what other peoples papers were like and hearing the feedback from the other students was very helpful in getting an idea of what it is we’re trying to do with these audio papers. Also, showing my own audio paper in its current stage was also of course useful, in that… Continue reading crit feedback reflection (aural cultures)

studio praxis reflection
in an exercise focused on listening to the sounds of claps in an open hall, with a big natural reverberation, and listening carefully to the length of the tail of the reverb’d sound and also afterwards paying careful attention to the place the clap sound came from (with our eyes closed). This close attention to… Continue reading studio praxis reflection
Aural cultures: audio paper development
Since deciding to focus my audio paper on the hip hop sub-genre ‘splayed’, I have had some thought on how to approach this idea.

Specialisation proposal: ‘Beyond the infinite’ rescore

Recently, I have explored different synthesisers, also the practise of improvisation. Both explorations, I plan to interweave into the re scoring of a scene from ‘2001: a… Continue reading Specialisation proposal: ‘Beyond the infinite’ rescore
