Sound Art

I have just sent an email to the Appledore Arts people about me doing a sound installation at the 2010 festival.

I feel this is a bold step for me - they could always just say no, especially since it is currently a visual arts festival, but if they were to be interested, if they were to say yes.

Even putting a proposal together for them to consider in more depth would take me right out of my comfort zone - something which is only a good thing.

In the back of this years programme there was a small section detailing that next years festival will run the theme of 'Coastline', and this filled my head with all sorts of ideas for audio pieces I could create.

I have spent most of this week developing my idea, just in my head, and am really confident that I could put together a fantastic piece of sound art fusing location recordings, sound collages, spoken word and traditional folk music.

I hope they consider it.

My blogging frequency may decline over the next few weeks due to the fact I spend my lunchtimes out in the sunshine now and when we move to Bath, I won't have an Internet connection for a while.

I think I will write by hand and blog-in-bulk.
