This will be the loosest project you do and the one that carries the most weight on your grade. For this assignment you will need to utilize sound as your primary medium along with other medium(s)/media to create a soundpiece/soundscape 3-4 minutes in length. You may pull from sounds in the sound database here to create a project that relates to a theme we have discussed during the semester. The theme can come from course readings or class discussions that evolved from course material, no matter how related they seem or not. You will turn in a proposal for your final project.
**For this project you may also create an instrument of sound. See me for more details.
1) Proposals for this project are due in class on Thursday March 28th! Turn in a two-page description of your intended project including; what you are intending to do, how you will do it & an explanation of the desired effect you are striving towards. In this proposal include sounds you will use and other mediums you want to incorporate. (ie. video, photo, smell, touch, etc…)
2) Final Projects are due in class on Tuesday April 30th. We will be critiquing and playing projects in class on Tuesday April 30th & Thursday May 2nd. (We will end the semester before final examinations.) Your final project includes all of the following elements:
1) A CD with your .aiff file burned to it
1) A final description of your end results and any supporting elements to turn in and post on your directory.
2) An MP3 to put on your home directory
