resonances/frequencies from mr louth-robins

.forum - week nine.

This week Tristan Louth-Robins presented an overview of his master project still and moving lines which focuses on the work of Alvin Lucier while also looking Tristan’s own creative work. Before I go on, does that not sound like an awesome format in which to do project?

The basic premise of Alvin Luciers work which Tristan looked at, is to present the wonders of acoustic phenomena in a creative way. Examples of this are his “I Am Sitting In A Room,” as well as “Music for Solo Performer” which blasts amplified subsonic brain waves onto percussion.

As such the project will need to look at the science of sound (Science? Who the hell said science?) in considerable depth, I would assume. This is something I know I would probably struggle with, because science ‘aint my bag baby.’ Hearing Tristan talk about standing waves and resonant frequencies did not really clear the water for me at all. Ok, these things do make some sense, just not a lot of sense, make sense?

Tristan talked about his intriguing work teapot, or perhaps tpot_(x). This follows the vain of “I Am Sitting In A Room,” using the resonant frequencies of a teapot to gradually filter subsequent playbacks and recordings, cycling on and on. It is always refreshing to hear someone experimenting with instrumentation, so I think the teapot here is an excellent choice. Teapots of coarse come in different sizes, colours and materials, these are all things Tristan is mewing over.

Finally, I had my own idea for a Lucier-vained piece. What if you amplified your subsonic brain waves so loud that they melted everyone nearby’s insides, by around 140 dB I suppose. You could walk the streets are literally melt minds not with your guitar, but with your mind!

With regard to your idea: I would never use my art for the purposes of evil... Cheers for the kind words as well.
