second meeting notes

Chi: I've need to prepare documents ready for my tmr's visa interview now so is it ok tonight we brainstorm about smaller briefs/spaces to work together tmr ?

is it better we meet at chelsea first?

Guan:  just like peter said. ‎10 ~ 15 sec each films is better than 2 mins, and the number of film also increases. (let's see how many we need)

Chi: im not asking abt that. i was asking tonight we think abt spaces we wanna come n draw the sound from? n tmr, if working together, i think chelsea is nearer for both of us..

Guan:  kitchen, library, cafe, cinema, canteen, safa outside the fitting rooms,bus, market, food stall, loo...

Chi: bookstore . fitting room . supermarket . market . kid's playground (there're 3 near my place). game centre (trocadero - leicester square) . hospital .

group meeting record!!

Guan :well. actually i thought the task i gonna provide is like the workshop that jim and geoffery held. "draw what you hear." not music but sounds, i want to limit the colour (again!) . do you think that interesting? or not, tell the truth.

Chi:  yes. great. i enjoyed it last yr. n i think its relative to our point!!
so should we first do individually tonight n bring to work together tmr? :)P i get excited with this heh

Chi: what colour limitation you're thinking of ?
im goin to buy some grocery now. will be bk with this in an hour see ya

Guan: might just choose one colour and extra dark colour ( black/ brown) for line? 

and we draw maybe 3 different sections (each colour can be different as well) 

Chi:music is part of sound. what you mean 'not music but sounds' ?
like nature's sound or things like that?

Guan: yes, maybe you can chooose one moment (maybe 15mins , even one hour?) then listen the sounds around you carefully. don't think too much, because the sounds come and go quickly.

some research by Guan

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia

" Synesthesia is also sometimes reported by individuals under the influence of psychedelic drugs, after a stroke, during a temporal lobe epilepsy seizure, or as a result of blindness or deafness. "

but the question is ...... synesthesia, for example, the common people like as us, all agree apple is red and abergine is purple. but for the people who said their have synestheia, one said 4 is yellow but others might disargee..... that's what i feel tricky.

Reading machine!

Chii:

this is no art video..
but the part where they screen then zoom in/out the texts, colour them and literally pronounce each word can help us form an idea ?

typography x graphic visual language

Rough idea

* Rough ideas: (by Chiie)

1 . making video of false mix-matched actions/ happenings with the recorded sounds…… Like the sound of sizzling sunflower oil on hot pan incorporates with the visual showing someone’s ironing a shirt.

A combination of sound + sight that probably does not make sense to question about value/ role of each sense ?

moving images with intentionally disturbing/ accelerating movements on randomly/ inapt background music. For example the visual of this video on youtube with classical (Chopin,…) music theme : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPxgi-PiNFE

Source: creative process of deaf artist Christine Sun Kim : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqJA0SZm9zI

2 . video/ visual series of the questioning idea : how do sounds look like?
making conceptual / sense-oriented illustration, moving images translating different sounds.

Example of translating website:

Music video with images literally explaining words (or maybe not?):

3 . muted scenes of kaleidoscopic images – images overlapping each other
