Firstly I would like to apologize for my absence last week. I didn’t feel well on Wednesday and Thursday and therefore decided to carry out the performance in the form of recording.
Here is the file.
The music begins with a high frequency open and then ends with it too. There are basically four parts to this music. A piece of white noise used for background music. A high-frequency melody realized by LDR and two kins of beats with different paces realized by using the human body as the resistor. When I was exploring the possibility for the elements for this performance, I wanted to incorporate something that is better delivered with recording. I have, therefore, included different levels of music into this piece. The higher frequency was created by LDR, and I shaped my hands like a bowl and moved around to create a kind of sound like echoes. The powerful beats, on the other hand, are found by attaching the wire to my fingers.
The general music piece flows gradually faster, with the beats moving quicker and quicker. I wish to create a state of nervousness by doing so. I wanted to hold the audience’s heartbeats and after the music reaches the climax part, suddenly release them. I was relatively satisfied with what was delivered. It can be considered as OK, but there is more to elaborate on.
The first thing left for me to improve is the musical instrument, or in other words, the source of the sound. I should make my own circuit and make everything more integrated and a little more complex. Currently, the sound is still a bit simple, still having a large possibility to polish.
I am now working on this week’s performances and will keep all of these in mind to make a better delivery.
