The objective of this piece was to create something meaningful to me, that will flow together well by using audio files. I’m a huge fan of the piano, so I knew that I wanted to incorporate a piano in the piece. Surprising enough the main part of the whole piece is the pinaoloop2 on a loop. The work process for this piece primarily involved getting the audio samples that will work nicely around my main piece which is the pianoloop2. After obtaining the audio files, the major software that I use to get the sounds together was Audacity. With audacity, I arranged the audio files around until I got the outcome that sounded pleasant. With, knowing what I wanted, and knowing how the piece would sound like already, I begin coding the OSC codes into …show more content…
I used the GUI library to code in the lines and circles that will bring this idea to life. Since I had four pictures that I wanted to incorporate into this piece. Instead of coding in the codes with my main files I decided to write the codes onto separate files and then I took to take a screenshot of each picture and save them as a png file. After saving them as a png file I coded the codes in Jython as an icon file and added it to the piece. I wanted the pictures to be unique, so I added them to the audio samples that will do it justice. For example, in the beginning, I have a heart beat going and one of the pictures I had coded is a picture of a heart rate with a heart in the middle, a second example is one of the audio files are an audio of rain and I had coded a picture with rain falling to match the audio files. My result of this piece was a musical piece that I enjoy putting together and it sounded pleasantly nice. Each audio files brought up images of the sunrise and sunset on the sea, so I incorporate them with pictures that I had coded instead of normal pictures that I could have gotten online. Overall, I name this piece Beauty and the Sea because of the musical sound and how each picture was relative to the
In Shaun Tan’s Arrival, the pictures prompt me to give an underscore of sound to them. Adding sound can strengthen the artist vision for the audience. For the first section of pictures, I would start off underscoring a sound of a ticking clock. Then, I would fade in sound of a stirring pot. After that, I would send in the sounds of a whistling tea kettle.
Distinctively visual is any element within a text that provokes a clear image, value or perspective. Composers use distinctively visual images to portray meaning, this can be seen in Ang Lee’s movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Samuel Watson’s poem labelled. Although Ang Lee and Samuel Watson portray mainly different ideas, they both use distinctively visual images to show their meaning to the audience. These images are created through filmic and literary technique’s.
WEEK # 11 From our text, Race, Class, and Gender, we read Unit III D: The Structure of Social Institutions; Education: Historical Reversals, Accelerating Resegregation, and the Need for New Integration Strategies; “I Hate It When People Treat Me Like a Fxxx-up”: Phony Theories, Segregated Schools, and the Culture of Aspiration among African American and Latino Teenagers; Across the Great Divide: Crossing Classes and Clashing Cultures; and How a Scholarship Girl Becomes a Soldier: The Militarization of Latina/o Youth in Chicago Public Schools. In addition, we read three essays by Mr. Al Condeluci Ph.D., The Critical Nature of Social Capital; Community and Social Capital; and The Process of Culture Shifting. The first four readings from the text show how education is an institution in crisis. Perpetuating and deepening the inequalities of race,
The arrangement of images, dramatically represents the tones,
Imagine sitting down to a multiple-course meal where the main dish is a strong fish, followed by a palate cleanser before a very sweet dessert. Now imagine a meal where the main course is savory, as well as the dessert. Both of these meals flow well, despite the first having contrasting flavors, while the second has complimentary flavors. Musical passages act in the same way—some flow into each other seamlessly, while others roughly transition from one piece to the next. Both can be effective in capturing the audience’s attention, and in drawing a myriad of emotions out of them.
It will consist of three different pieces each created using a different medium. The goal for my project is to illuminate the ways in which we view each other. How, through different lens, other’s interpretation
Could you have shown the same things with words? Yes, I used one visual and it showed a little girl with freckles being bullied. I think it went along with the storyline very well. The song “Don’t Laugh At Me” was written after Allen Shamblin’s daughter came home from school one day telling him that she was being bullied for her freckles.
At first, I was surprised by the musical composition. It was a chaotic and disorganized piece of music that felt somewhat soothing. In the music, there were different instruments that, at first sounded like they were attacking each other, but soon felt like they were
Music and sound are one of the many cinematic techniques that Tim Burton uses to convey the emotion of the scene and the characters. Tim Burton uses music and sound in many various ways. For instance
Throughout this suspenseful movie, the use of sound has been used very liberally ranging to create an additional layer of suspense or of background. The Others (2001) by Alejandro Amenábar use the element of sound to bring out the character’s history and
One of the main ideas which struck me was the fact of using a particular sound such as the guitar or violin to support the timing of my track but also give me a main sound to work around and with. I decided to choose the violin as it not only withheld the time much better than the guitar, but was also much easier to work with. I used the sound “HonourBass” as it was a standard kick and really blended with other sounds, a bass like this is a must when making electronic music. After listening to several melodies, they seemed to mix well with the constant bass and ringing of the violin, so I separated the melodies into groups, choosing ones which seem to connect and suit each other. These are the melodies which I incorporated in my song.
For assignment 2, I choose the piece “Lohengrin: Act III: Prelude” composed by Richard Wagner. This piece is located in the “Types of Listeners I: Introduction and Casual Listeners” section. This piece really caught my attention because of the overall composing which reminded me of a cartoon story during my childhood days, particularly the Disney animation Mickey Mouse. This leads to my interest in analyzing it as a referential listener. The title of the piece is Lohengrin: Act III: Prelude which emphasizes that the piece is an introductory to a bigger performance, which in this case indicates a story of tension and conflict.
I works compositionally as well, the words framed both by the darker grey on the wall and then a lighter shade around it. In the last slide I like that you chose to put the neon sign in the corner. I instantly got a narrative with that photo and read
Analyse the use of sound other than music in the movie. Did it enhance the story that the filmmakers were trying to tell? What sounds, other than music, would you have used to tell the story told by this movie? •
If this is indeed what the artist was trying to do, it was done very well. Because the questions I starting asking in the beginning of the film all seemed to come together and make perfect sense(Downs, W. M., & Ramsey, E. 2012). This explains why Catherine (Gwyneth Paltrow) continued to hallucinate throughout the movie because it had to capture Robert’s (Anthony Hopkins) role and how this all came about in the first place. This was definitely worth doing because it provided a better understanding of the movie in itself and although it ended in such a way I did not expect, there is room for much growth and changes for an extended film.
