Final Project Proposal
I would like to continue working on a project i began over the summer. by the end of the semester i hope to have 10 pieces in final master form for the creation of a 'CD' of my work. with this project i hope to create a concise document of my recent forays into digital sound design/ sound collage. considering that i sample tv audio my work has a strong atmospheric slant... additionally i am taking inspiration from the format utilized by Brian eno on music for films and the work of Lustmord(www.lustmord.com).
