Intentions of my creative sound work

| 0 comments

Through sound, I would like to draw attention the ever-present issue of noise pollution in London. Through researching the works of acoustic ecologists such as Hildegard Westerkamp and Andra McCartney.

In Westerkamp’s “Kit Beach Soundwalk”, she guides the listener through the composition. Through the means of narration, she is able to shift the listeners perspective and guide them into their own subjective analysis. However, I do not wish to use narration in my audio work, instead I am opting for a complete re-shift in focus, to the undesirable sounds while in a park, through the means of sound manipulation.
