Week 6
Context:
This week I missed the Monday afternoon session about extended microphones techniques which put me in a state of confusion. Yesterday I went to a friends house and started to learn about some of the hardware you can use to create sound which was productive. I am still trying to download Ableton for my Mac so I can start to do some work at home. Did a live recording DJ set and got a gig with the same people again.
I planned to:
Book about a field recorder and continue to record sounds which I’m going to do today so can record sounds over the weekend. I wanted to read something off the reading list on the Library website. Plus continue to learn Ableton at home on my Mac and start to get used to it.
Reflection:
I did well at learning some hardware techniques at my mates house and that was very progressive to my knowledge. I did all the appropriate reading for Annies lesson and was well informed own the discussion points. Did a live mixing DJ set which was super fun, I really enjoyed the live sampling aspect of it.
Next I plan to:
Listen to some pieces on phone calls and the voice over the phone as that’s what intend to use in my work. To research some Ableton techniques further. To start to make my own compositions at home with mixing and mastering. To play more hardware through my software at home and play around with it. To write my plan for the reflective writing task.
