Week 4
I have started to get into a routine of accumulating bits and pieces from prior and building on top of them, finding some unfinished work that I find very important to myself and thinking about what can be done with them, keeping the work stream of consciousness to give room for both this project and…

Week 5
This week’s lecture from Jose was particularly hands-on, which I was very happy about. Sometimes, I disengage from classes if I am not particularly interested in the topic or don’t feel as involved as I’d like to be, so involving everyone in a performance where we thoughtfully engage with a set of instruments to build…

Week 6
I finally got a 1 to 1 done with Jose, albeit while in a pretty horrible state of not having slept and just having got off of a Coach. The 1 to 1 kind of helped making my ideas into something with more of a goal, Jose suggesting that the Ambient Box Set could be…

Week 7
A bit late like but I feel like I have kind of reshaped the entire project in a way that feels a lot more articulate (and motivating), mostly because of intensively accumulating all my own and others thought on Wall Noise and sifting through blogs and kind of disparate bits of literature and magazines for…

Week 8
I had to cancel the 1 to 1 this week as my Dad had to go to the hospital, I had to go to Liverpool for the week so I could see him when he was let out (which took longer than any of us would have liked it to). He seems like he is…

Week 9
Further working on this second track, I have been thinking about a Guest Lecture from first year from a Sound Designer (the name escapes me), referring to her work on a desert scene, where she discussed how the sound was approached much more from how the space feels rather than how it actually sounds. To…

Week 10
This is the final week before the first hand-in, so I spent some time refining what I have so that the point of each project is articulated well enough in my proposal for me to hopefully not fumble the presentation on Friday, which is the main part of this week since I am the first…

Week 17
This was the first week of the Collaboration module, so it was more or less just establishing what is expected of us this term and laying out the foundation for what we should be thinking about throughout. It was also my first time being taught by Hannah who has a very different approach to teaching…

Week 18
This week’s session allowed for the animation students to pitch their projects to us to see if we are interested in the first pathway, and disappointingly the session kind of moved me away from that direction more than I had hoped. There were a couple projects that I thought were nice but mostly nothing I…

Week 19
Today’s session was delivered by Sarah Macdonald rather than Hannah and focused on theories related to collaboration and how to engage with those projects. To me, the ideas didn’t really present much excitement, and rather just reinforced the same ideas I already had. What I did enjoy, though, was visiting the “Igloo” 270-degree screen in…
