Sound
What kind of sound should be my installation?
Well I have narrowed down the category of spy that should be on my installation,
- Secret / gossips
- Curiosity in sound
- Sound in everyday life
Revise how sound affect us everyday:
Physiology – breathing, heart rate, brainwaves
Psychological – emotion, mental state etc
Cognitive – can’t listen to two things at once.
Behavior - The actions or reactions of a person
I will try to implement this effect on sound that will be in my installation.
Well I have made some research about this on my SRI , here a part of chapter 1 :
Firstly music evokes emotional reactions in people through a combination of its elements: rhythm, tempo, melody, themes, chords and instrumentation. There are many different musical styles that appeal to different people for different reasons.
Secondly speeches is sound generated by the human vocal cords and is a very expressive medium. The advantage it has over written text is that it is much more defined. Cotton and Oliver wrote on the advantage of speech over text:
"The added advantage is that we can also hear the tone of voice, intonation, pace and rhythm, which can further clarify and illuminate what is being said." (Cotton/Oliver, 1997, p 81)
Then finally sound effects, also named ambiance or environmental sounds, are sounds that give the listener a sense of being in an actual space, the listeners could imagine themselves in a different world. They provide a good way to achieve an immersing experience.
Sound that should be in my installation:
Contain:
- Secret / gossips
- Curiosity in sound
- Sound in everyday life
From
- Speech or conversation
- Sound in everyday life
- Music if possible
- ambience / sound effect
- accident/unplanned sound
This content development is the harder part of my project , I need more time to think and research what should I record to really give the more impact on the users . But for now, I stick with above list.
