Great posts about how you react to sound.\u00a0 This is what we’re looking to do with sound — bypass thinking about what you’re hearing and have an immediate reaction.<\/p>\n

Sound crit moved to 10 Nov.\u00a0\u00a0 3 Nov will be a workday in A10, 5 Nov will be another workday-not-in-A10.\u00a0 I’ll be on zoom for both classes.<\/p>\n

Notes<\/h2>\n

We’re looking at sounds-out-of-context.\u00a0 Experimental music, the use of new technology to invent new music, etc.<\/p>\n

Experimental \/ avant-garde sound<\/h3>\n

Mark Applebaum\u2019s experimental instruments and scoring. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=46w99bZ3W_M<\/p>\n

Nikoli Voinov who composed music by drawing on paper, creating animation that made sound. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Z7Zb4rso82M<\/p>\n

Musique concrete using early technology to record and modify sound, including the original soundtrack to \u201cDoctor Who\u201d.\u00a0 Some examples of recording found sound and reusing it for music.\u00a0 https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=c4ea0sBrw6M<\/p>\n

Some music you should listen to as background music while you\u2019re doing other tasks. Avant-garde and futurism is a rather wide grouping, like saying \u201crock\u201d or \u201ccountry\u201d:<\/p>\n

Experimental composition with traditional instruments\u00a0 https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=TTUXhLeLojA including John Cage: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pq0a317mk30<\/p>\n

Luigi Russolo’s “industrial music” using sirens\u00a0 https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BYPXAo1cOA4<\/p>\n

The Development of Hip-Hop<\/h3>\n

Using street technology to change and create new genres of music. Entertainment and environmental sounds can come from other contexts with the use of equipment to record, store, modify, and replay.
\nTurntables used to create hip hop https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=oA-OpvH4CIQ and the 1.5 hour documentary (good for a long flight) \u00a0 https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YEKRAn-ZleM<\/p>\n

Appropriating Sounds from Other Domains<\/h3>\n

There are a couple of famous sounds in hip-hop that became parts of pop and rave music.<\/p>\n
