Where am I? Where am I going? That is the question!

Right now I am amidst a few small pieces that I have truly enjoyed making. I love sitting down by myself and coming up with different sounds and ideas. However, I don’t think I want to do this all semester. Here are some of my ideas…

I would love to record some nature sounds with a field recorder and create a song based on nature. I am very in tune with the outdoors so I think that would be fun. I also want to create a piece with a group of people. It would be amazing to be able to perform it live but that is the less important part of the process. Like others, I don’t have a huge overarching idea that I need to complete. I feel like I am better off tackling things at random that I come up with which I have done previously. I wanted to create a slower paced song, so I did. I also wanted to use the KORG sound pad to create a song, so I did. I am enjoying skipping around from idea to idea and I think I would like to stick with that. So I don’t necessarily have a set idea, but I have a few random ideas that I think would be very interesting.
