Project 2 is all about creating music that is music to our personal ears. Starting the project with the understanding of John Cage’s “4,33” and the impact it had on the music industry is truly an inspiration for what music is understood to be. I personally have a couple ideas for ways to take this project. First a nice calm white noise sound would be very nice. I like this idea because it intrigues me the type of music that you can tune out or let your subconscious listen to without having to put much effort into. The type of music that you can still do daily activities too without much interference but some positive effect as well. Another idea for this project is to create a sound clip that is as close to a soothing sound as possible with jarring sound clips. I like this because I think it is an interesting and semi hard goal that can end up with both a good sound clip and a humorous one. Even though I feel that using random ordinary sounds is going to be a difficult task to make something of music that feels like good music, the project will be fun and a new way to expand one’s mind about the ideas of what music is. Hopefully the end product of this project is something that I feel qualifies as music to both us and our classmates. I’m hoping to take my project in the ways listed above, but I will have to pull inspiration from the sound clips that are available to the class for the project.
