Within my contribution to the Creative Sound Projects Collective I am delving into ideas around improvisation and spatialisation. In relation to those ideas, I am composing a piece that is reflective of perception through experimentation and general sound design. Utilising both improvisation and a structured sense of artificial space I am striving to create a piece that combines the abstractness of the use of western notes and notation with the naturally physical sense of space.

My interest in sound is related to both sound design and composition for film. While the meaning that lies in support of the sound object changes between context, the primary purpose of sound in film is to help tell the story. This includes both giving context to feeling and action from characters, scenery, and the interpretation of events. This piece will not only explore sonic spatialisation, it will also explore emotional and physical spatialisation, despite being attempted without a motif or specific story.

Expansion prior to the start of the initial composition will include analysis of sound works, films, and environments. The environments will include both personal and public spaces, instruments, and weather.

While the idea is broad, I hope to utilise this as an exercise in expanding my own practice in sound and storytelling, as well in working as a collective with the class.
