Meeting with Graham Cooper 22/06/2016
- Final Project will culminate in an exhibition
- Need to consider timing, when will this happen? Are there any events it can be tied to?
- Possibly thinking September will be the optimal time to hold this, leaving October to complete the supporting documentation for submission.
- Following on from Project 2 to expand to consider the artificial voice
- Digital personal assistants – Siri, Cortana etc.
- We carry a human voice in our pockets which communicates with us.
- What social implications does this bring with it?
- How are voices recorded to be made into a database?
- Concatenation in the programming sense – the operation of joining character strings end-to-end.
- Need to look into what a choir is
- Different forms of choirs.
- Composite of flow and timings that work in sequence.
- Georgian Choir – use of chants and drone like sounds where the members of the choir focus on each others breathing and join in.
- Storytelling
- Communication
- Andes/ Kazakstan – Shepards communicating with each other over the mountains using their hand to project their voice.
- Putting your own hand behind your ear allows you to tune in on your own voice – the amplification of you.
- Expand to consider the full biology of the human voice – mouth, teeth, tongue, throat, windpipe, lungs, diaphragm etc.
- Creation of objects that could be used as an instrument of the voice
- Possibility of 3D printing objects that can expand and contract.
