Finally, we have done Project 2~ We did our demo in ADM level 1, we used the rubbish bins outside the lift. It was really cool as it was actually quite loud and the sounds were very funny as they are a bit exaggerated HAHA.
Here’s what we have done!

This project changed my views of what is sound art. It has to be very creative and use sounds to give the objects a new meaning and message. I realised the simple objects around us can be very interactive and helps to raise awareness if we add sounds to them. Through the research, I have not only learnt about sound installations but also how different kinds of sensors works. That quite complex for me. Also, sound art is different from other form of arts like a painting or a sculpture. It will tend to attract the people and keep them to stay around the object for a longer time. As it will make them curious and want to find out more about it which is more effective in a way.
We got feedbacks from our teacher and classmates. They feel this project should be placed at the kindergarten as the sounds we used are very animated. Therefore, the young kids will like to play with it and learn from it. Also, I thought we could have do the test video for it in some public places outside the school. Record down the real life reactions of the people using it. That should be fun to do but we did not have enough time to do it though. Maybe we should try out someday.
Overall, its a fun experience and its good to work with Rochelle and Xuan Fei. Looking forward to the final 4D project in the library!
