week 10
Today at our laptop musicianship lecture we had our second try on group improvisations which i think went better than the previous week.
My group: we tried having more dynamics and a clearer structure. We also communicated better this time and we tried imitating each others sounds.
Group one: was too slow and there weren’t a lot of things happening and it was just the same thing over and over again. Everyone had similar sounds which i think wasn’t that interesting.
Group two: they should have left the first sound last longer and not hurry putting the other sounds in. This time they added more sounds and I really liked it when they used the speech sound more than the previous time. I also liked the way they approached the ending, where everyone started fading out and got slower.
Group three: they were missing two people so it was kind of poor but they did pretty well. This time they didn’t use the drum beat loop and they used more effects like reverb which made it sound much better.
Group four: each person had very different and interesting sounds which made it very atmospheric. On the other hand I felt that there wasn’t any structure but they just came in randomly.
