I’ve been making some test clips I’ve made using my voice, my violin and a metronome. I’ve been experimenting with sound manipulation to see what interesting sounds I can make. It’s been quite liberating in a way because as an artist, there are no rules. I can play this instrument which I used to follow so many rules on, without having to worry about being amazing.
I’m planning on making more soundtracks to make up an album.
I watched this YouTube video essay about a conspiracy theory about Paul McCartney dying in the 1960s and being replaced by a lookalike. It wasn’t the theory itself that I was interested in, it was the creativity that The Beatles put into their music and imagery to make people try to find other meaning in it. Here’s a link to the video essay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jziiOMeChrc
With this album, I want to use the same kind of creativity- like using sound manipulation and subliminal messaging to engage the listener.
