Week 11 Forum - Instrument Improvisation Part 1


This week we had an improvisation session with the instruments we created. To be perfectly honest I don't think we came up with any nice sounds. Steven had us try a few variations. At one stage we had to perform as soft as possible. For me this just meant turning down the amp. . . ?

Still an interesting session even if there didn't seem to be much progress.

Class improvisation session [7.8MB]

This was recorded off my phone so the quality is very bad. But, will a high quality recording of this collection of noise sound any better?

Hmmm very philosophical question. I'm sure Stephen Whittington would have an answer. Something like, "I took the dog for a walk".

hahaha Stephen has an answer for everything! I don't like to be critical all the time but last week did seem pointless.
