Since we have no class on monday i expect that you will DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL pd-extended for your computer. BLOG with some insight on some of the topics i suggested. Steve Reich and Phase Music Phillip Glass and Music with changing parts Terry Riley and Minimal Music [IN C ] and Rainbow in Curved Air La Monte Young [DRONES] You are also expected to make at least 3 compositions using LOOPS that you either download from Freesond or visit one of the two sites for REMIX http://www.bush-of-ghosts.com/remix/bush_of_ghosts.htm http://remix.nin.com/ Make sure in your AUDACITY PROJECTS you use 1.) Speeding sounds up 2.) Slowing sound down 3.) An effect [REVERB, EQ, COmpression] 4.) Explore NORMALIZATION to -6db as we discussed in class 5.) make a cut, chop something and re-arrange it with audacity 6.) try phasing things **remember my examples about out of phase! Also please go and explore and DOWNLOAD an .mp3 from UBUWEB and convert it to a .wav or .aiff with ITUNES. Try to weave these things...
Projects are due on Thursday, so I think we should start presenting on Thursday. The earlier, the more convenient it will be for me.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about anyone else, but I've got a class right after this one on MWF and next Friday I have an exam--and I'd really prefer not to have to skip out on most of the projects.
ReplyDeleteI'm in favor of Thursday. Maybe we can take over the period Arturo's class meets (right before us) since we're doing presentations in that class later in the afternoon that day. Though I guess that could present similar scheduling problems for some people.
It might be best just to do it thurs/fri during class time. It's gonna be hard to fill in everyone's schedules.
ReplyDeleteI'm ok with doing presentations on Thurs/Fri. I think that now everyone knows that Youtube takes some time to load, we can eliminate lots of downtime and would be able to do it in 2 class periods.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we should just make sure to burn all of our videos or rip them from youtube ahead of time.
ReplyDeleteI'm ok with doing presentations thursday and friday within the class times. I have a final in my class on friday right after this class, so staying until 2 would be impossible for me.
ReplyDeleteI think the best course of action is to decide in class (with a vote for example) which of the two days would be better for staying past class time. Then, whoever isn't able to stay on that day would get priority to present on the other. agree/disagree? what do you guys think?
ReplyDeleteI think Thursday and Friday during class should be enough time if everyone brings their video or other media already downloaded or on a disk. With so many diverse schedules, I think it would be too hard to schedule time outside of our regular class time.
