Source Statement 2/18/1010

When I began to investigate my source, which seems to be the ambience or drowning out of city noise, and also includes noises in cafe's, bars, noises on a walk to the train, inside the train - even noises during what is expected to be a quiet peaceful walk, I can hear planes overhead and vehicle traffic in the distance. As a person who enjoys architecture, I am beginning to incorporate my relationship with noise in how I will consider the organization of space(s) for an inhabitant.

My experience with audio/video lecture on 2/11/2010

As I become more familiar with Final Cut Express, I am finding great value in the know how's of the program, but nonetheless it is a complicated program, and I speak for myself but I am sure others participating in these lectures are also having some difficulty. I think it requires a definite learning curve given the time constraints of the class period. Certain hang-ups caused by complicated processes can be overwhelming, especially for those of us who have never really dealt with or worked with audio/video technology.

Having said that, I think that I would pick up the technical aspects of Final Cut Express with greater clarity if I had more time in class with either instructor assisting in the course, thus giving me the hands on approach and confidence I need to tackle the lesson plan, which would hopefully open up other channels of creativity and more time to connect to my project - making my work, experience more interesting and solid.

New Source Statement

Peace is Noise:

5 Aspects of my source are:

1. Traffic in the heat of rush hour

2. Transient people on the streets

3. People boarding the subway

4. People meeting in places

5. People in social establishment

Throughout life, past life’s and future ones to be, I will speculate that people have intently or with surprise, and with curious ears, experienced definite change in the noises they hear – as if we have adopted new noises to be affected with, affected in a way that there seems to be an ambience to those noises; noises then seamlessly become part of our process of nature, and they may give us strengths and influence, and can cause a change in our behavior, mood, etc. Or we may have another basic or complex connection that means something; something that has guidance or direction. I lean on the idea that technological nuances have caused sounds and noises to become more dynamic in their evolution. I believe that adaptation is our deals’ challenge, and we tolerate and vise versa, or we develop a relationship with, so we learn properties, advantages and pitfalls. And there’s the other noise that remains as its true and clear antiquity of sound, its antiquity of program, or having to do with trades, actions, productions, feelings, or simply the noises and sounds our bodies make – those we have a clean-clear connection and acceptance towards. The sound an axe or log splitter produces from striking down and splitting a log or tearing from the stock of a tree.
