https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLJZOkan3YAHere is a sonic painting I whipped up for a PHD application, it's basically a video painting of an area in the southern suburbs of Adelaide that you should avoid at all costs. Yes it is a piece of music, albeit experimental. The sounds of the area I recorded for my honours project, these are then reconstituted in a granular synth. I've then layered another granular synth of the same sounds and ad libbed another layer. The whole piece is anchored with guitar riffs.
The video is experimental, which uses techniques of the classical avant garde...Russolo, Schaeffer, Stockhausen and Cage...and for all who don't know without these four the techniques which we take for granted and use today in music would not exist. The techniques of looping, speed effects, cutting and splice and even reverse, which I have employed within the video.
I've also use impressionist techniques of soft or out of focus shots and colour to highlight the beauty in the mundane and ordinary.
Cheers
