Sound

Sounds of water falling, rain and water falls.
We started in the dark listening to sounds, water and thunder and rain drops. Using projection we then created a waterfall area to move through and around adding sound using the keyboard and instruments.

Sound

Over the next few weeks we will be creating soundscapes.

Today we explored different sounds using things to drop and roll on our large metal tray and our large cardboard boxes with different things inside. A microphone linked to the chaos pad enabled us to distort the sounds for example changing pitch levels or adding echoes.

Week 5 Interactive Net Installation

Netted

Today we filmed ourselves moving and dancing. We projected these images onto the net so that we could dance, move and watch ourselves. Later we projected drawn lines and shapes using an ipad and of course there were shadows. All this accompanied by amazing music created by participants.

Week 3 Interactive Net Installation

Contours and Sculptures

Changing the shape by stretching and pulling the net we created sculptures that held for a moment and faded before a new sculpture emerged. The sound and lights reflected the atmosphere of the work.

Ritual 13

Offerings , Silver and Shrines.

Today we have been exploring rituals around offerings and food. We created our own special space using things that caught and reflected the light. We used different sounds to create an atmosphere. We then took our offerings into our special space.

Ritual 7

Pendulums, swinging swirling sand and more.

Today Visual Arts and Sensory Arts worked together. We used pendulums filled with coloured sand to spread the colours over a large sheet of paper. We then drew additional shapes using brushes and sponges on sticks so we didn't tread too much on the art work. Smaller pictures were made using glue and dried powder paint, we can keep these.

We were also really lucky that Will Hurt was working  on his new project at Level. We were able to work with him to see what is is all about and to help him shape the work.
Wills work work can been seen at Purple Peach at Level Centre on tuesday  November 10th, 6.30-10 pm.

Ritual 3

Continuing with creating our own rituals, today we have made more rituals using bells, wood blocks and sounds and exploring repeated ritualistic movement. We also started painting a flag that will be used next week.

Ritual 2

Bells

Bells have always played a part in rituals and ceremonies. Today we have explored ringing and jingling sounds, creating and performing our own rituals with the bells.
