From Milo’s class (which I unfortunately missed some of) I was able to have a deeper introduction to the course’s themes and the overall concept of the audio paper, as before I had just assumed it was something akin to bargain bin nature records with a narrator serving to describe the sounds and the environment …

2 : An Audible History of Sound Art
Milo’s class this week was clarifying more to do with the hand-in regarding what we are expected to have done as well as what an audio paper can take form as, and some of us showed off the work we were prompted to make last week as a “Reading Aloud” practice, as well as discussed …
3 : Audio and Immersive Media
I found this audio paper about something I am quite enthusiastic about, and was hoping to mostly just have certain records from my own personal canon mentioned to get excited over to be honest but I got something different. Mike Callander discussed Pierre Schaefer’s discovery of closed grooves and quite beautiful description of the action …

10 : An Audible Future of Sound Art
The session this week was about Structialism and Post Structuralist ways of thinking, and way those ideas can be adapted to research practices. I very much enjoyed the session, the post structuralist ideas of being inquisitive about everything in life, especially things that are told to be “true”, and working out their inner workings and …
