I've decided to play my work place as an instrument. I work at a one hour photo lab, which consists of a variety of interesting sounds. I will use and manipulate the sounds to create a composition, hopefully, a lot of high pitched tones. It will involve the appropriation of technology.
Instructional piece: What determines an annoying sound? Is it psychological OR does it actually cause physical pain?
Questions that should be asked? Is sound just sound or have people convinced themselves that a certain sound is annoying because of social and cultural influences.
I could ask this question in class: How many people on a normal day would find these sounds annoying.
Notes for myself: What is the difference between noise and sound? What are the different definitions that involve performance?
