Sound Walk project, few weeks ago we took a walk from London Bridge to St Paul, and recorded some sounds on the way including Borough Market, Riverside and Tate Modern. Today we grouped up to edit those sounds together to create journey of sounds.
I personally think that we dont need to really make up a story at all, some edit the sounds together and give it some sense of differences in between each part of the journey, this is simpler and easier, yet Mohamad seems to really like the idea of making a story, so we just follow his idea.
The story goes, A woman just had a Psychotherapy with a bad end of it, she sort of eager to escape the place and the noisy city around her, so she had to experience a stressful sounds of urban environment and traveled to a seaside with some much relaxing sounds such as children playing, tropical music and the waves of sea, and finally settle down with a calmer sound.
This was the idea, although there are some changes alone the way, I still dont seem too work well with Mohamad in this case. Not that I only want an easy things and get it over with, I just thought some part of the story can be different and we dont need to fallow the initial idea. Well, this is what would happen when people are working together over a project, argument and disagreement are bound to happen, and eventually one is gonna give, in this case is me...
So I had to work my part over again(sort of), to fit his ideal soundscape outcome. I am not saying this is bad or what, its just something we will encounter sooner or later as this is what always happens in design world.
