Taking inspiration from the Dada art I has
seen I began to make my own word based sound drawing.
I stared with a watercolor background made
up of a mix of muted colours. I chose these because
the sounds are soft like
the de-saturated tones; the mix of sounds created by my noisemaker
is
represented in the range of colours. I went with watercolours because of the
way they blend
and the soft look have. This references the way the my sounds
fade in
and out and work together.
The words I used came from listening to my
noisemaker ad picking out the main sounds
I heard I then tried to write them in
a way that showed how much variety one sound had
(change in
size/direction/spacing etc..). I kept the lines fluid and random as that’s how
I interpret
my sound, the lines of words also come in at random some times out
from
different lines this indicates the introduction of a new strand being
activated.
Compositionally I kept the writing small on
the page, as the sounds I create don’t really fill the
space so I wanted to
show that. I also wanted some strands to flow out further as my sounds
seem to travel,
as they are high pitch and metallic sounding.
I also wanted to include the
dashed lines as to me it’s a visual representation of my
noisemaker – a whole
lot of small clinks coming together to make something much bigger.
