Exploring Sound



We were then given several tasks, the first one Atmosphere. this looked at drawing objects or locations that a track evokes. i found this quite difficult to get my head around at first, so i began to list objects and locations that linked to the selected track i had chose without looking at youtube videos. i also tried to include a range of medias and colours within my work to show a level of visual investigation. for the second exercise we had to create a colour palette in response to music, this really made you think about how the different areas in a track for example, loud to quiet, slow to fast represent different colours and how you interoperate a track. the next exercise was Imaginary lines, which explored mark making from sound. for this task i selected several tracks which al varied in sound so that i was able to develop the response for each track and compare the difference. some of the tasks i will admit i didn't really enjoy like the pattern exercise will we had to create our own method of notating music. and preferred the more abstract approach of drawing rather than creating an illustration to describe music. the tasks were all similar in a sort of manner therefore was able to overlap several tasks at once when creating my media of work.


I felt that these tasks were very beneficial as even though they were hard to get my head around at first they really opened my eyes in how to visualise sound and made me be more carefree when expressing my work, and to also work on a larger scale.
