Final Found Sound Project

Found Sound Final Edit


     This edit includes nine tracks with about eight sounds. Some adjectives I think of when listening to this edit consist of anxious, disruptive, disorienting and confusing. I nicknamed this edit, Bad Dream, because the movement over time in the edit to me mimics the course of falling asleep, entering a pleasant dream then transitioning to a bad dream then back to waking up at the end. However, this isn't the required experience needed to fully enjoy the edit, feel free to use your imagination. Enjoy!

With a mother and grandmother who both played the piano, Oliveros grew up surrounded by music and playing multiple instruments including accordion, tuba and French horn with the accordion being the most prominent. Oliveros has always been enamored with the physical relationship with sound from playing unconventional instruments in unconventional settings and conventional instruments in unconventional settings as well as how sound sprouts creativity in the human mind.
