I arrived back at Elsewhere to meet with several people whom have agreed to be docents if you will for our sound workshop. We are assembling more than a few people interested from visual art, music, sound/noise and social backgrounds, which is really exciting!
We’ve been also begun working with Molly one of the interns in attempt to start gathering physical elements that might be interesting sonic candidates. It was quite interesting to describe to molly what an ideal candidate might look like. This exercise is in effect a small-scale version of the workshop we have planned. The search might include looking for things that might seem like they might sound interesting, things that seem similar to one another as to compare and contrast their sonic possibilities, items that reference common instruments or no longer fulfill their former instrumental qualities, items that might be used in conjunction with others and items possessing differing exterior textures. The ensuing experience is to investigate objects with an imagination and curiosity that might spark and challenge someone else’s interrogation of the same objects, but keeping in mind that any other individual may go about it in a wholly different manner and conclusion about every item assembled.
The other problem was trying to delegate these tasks to Molly so I could do other things, when all I wanted to do was go find toys!
