Samartzis and LiquidArchitecture inspired Audacity


Today I've been researching by listening to Bogong Sound (Phillip Samartzis) recordings of industrial sounds such as "Concrete Path And Electric Station" and sounds from the Aurora Australia as it made the journey to Antarctica such as "At The End of The Night". The site Liquid Architecture online artworks gave me some ideas of how to present the sounds embedded with print, especially, Madelynne Cornish, "Surface Noise"  www.liquidarchitecture.org.au/surface-noise/
 and the work "Remember Me:What Remains" http://www.liquidarchitecture.org.au/remember-me-what-remains/ where links to sounds are embedded with maps.  I tried with a word document but it looks a bit clunky, so needs more research.  “Remember Me: What Remains” sparked a few experiments with censoring recordings of the wind with the alarm that I recorded. My thoughts had run along the lines of conservation and the suppression of nature by industrial sounds. I think this is something I may continue to explore, the overlay of mechanization and nature, or the overlay of different histories in a space which is probably more on the lines of my work.  I trialed the mixing of sound recordings with interviews that I sourced. I wanted to pilot this as my work could utilize oral history recordings coupled with photos and prints I have created.
