Inspiration

When I discussed my project with Mike, Mike recommended a musician and artist, john cage, and when I saw his work, I was blown away that he could bring sound to life in a pictorial way and make a lot of very interesting visual scores. From there I also learned that there is another way of music called chance music.

Aleatoric music (also aleatory music or chance music; from the Latin word alea, meaning "dice") is music in which some element of the composition is left to chance, and/or some primary element of a composed work's realization is left to the determination of its performer(s). The term is most often associated with procedures in which the chance element involves a relatively limited number of possibilities.

So I'm going to go back to Crammond island and try to capture and visualize the sounds of the island and make my graphic score. So I'm going to go back to Crammond island and try to capture and visualize the sounds of the island and make my graphic score.

I dripped paint onto the paper and then let it fly freely in the wind, letting the wind scribble all over it. Then I took the paper and let the trees, grass and other plants do the painting, which were blown by the wind to paint freely on my paper. This way I got some very interesting patterns.
