YOMusic - About "30seconds conceptual moment"
BackYOMusic
30sec. c.m. 30 seconds conceptual moment these sound files were made for "Himekuri Calendar": a daily exhibition on the web by the artists who joined through the internet. my 30sec. c. m. is all set in the same duration of 30 seconds like a commercial video; each sound has its "conceptualized" background. contributing artists were asked that they should make their work under a monthly given theme. >Indigo Tones theme: ai. I took "ai" for "ai-iro (indigo)". the noise spectrum is classified into colors, similar to the light wave spectrum; lower is red, higher is blue. based on this, Indigo Tones are made from the sound around indigo. >Treasure Search theme: takaramono. means treasure. I searched the web for treasure, like pirates go on a treasure hunt. text data I found was edited as a poem, then transformed into background sound. >Thai Foo theme: tai hoo. uses rhythm patterns which are popular in Thailand country pop music. >Surf on Jane theme: tai hoo. it reads as "typhoon", too. each typhoon, called by a female name, makes a bigger wave. it's a big try for a surfer but will also swallow him up. >Cut, Plug theme: cut. sometimes, a spoken word in broadcasting is cut away if it's considered dirty or socially unacceptable. the word goes into silence, or a beep sound. sometimes, I hear music in it. >Smile SETI theme: uchoo. the space. sine wave frequency curves draw a smile for ET. >Sonic Zoom theme: zoom. zooming the sound in strength and length. >Hitomi My Love theme: hitomi. a lonely man sings a story about a girl: Hitomi! >Dolphin Party theme: iruka. means dolphin. using the simulated sound which dolphin will make. >Kill That Bug theme: mushi. means bug. the bad electric contact makes a noisy bug. >Urban Cricket theme: mushi. when travelling to Seoul, Korea, I heard a strange sound of crickets. they were alarm clocks that a man was selling along the road. >Technocut theme: techno. a haircut with no sideburns is called as "techno cut" in Japan. >The End of Groove theme: groove. simulated sound of an analogue disk player playing at the end of the groove. >e-massage theme: massage. put stereo speakers onto your shoulder, then play "e-massage" with maximum volume. is it cure? I do not guarantee you or your speakers, if you try this. >Prayers Echo theme: inori. means praying. a mixture of chants from three different religions >The Last Aphorist theme: choh. means ultra. an ultra high-speed full-length version of "Also sprach Zarathustra" by Richard Strauss.
