I listened through the three music sketches that I recieved from David.
…
Before I started to work this time I knew I wanted to dissolve the 3D models/
working
method that I had created from Step2. The previous work was necessary at stage
2,
but would be to precise and stop my work in Step3. In Step2 I also had separated
the
sharp sound as one form, and the soft as another. This time I wanted the sounds
and
forms to somehow be woven together as one unit.
I found out that it is important to listen to the music a lot so that the sketching
feeds
off the notes rather than my own previous visual work.
For Step3 I chose to continue with one shape that had a strong connection with
the
music in Step2. I wanted to break down and dissicate the form to turn it into
a shape
that felt more complete and together.
What would I get from the different lines in the sketch (first image in Step3)
if I were
to break up the form into units within the excisting grid? I started to look
at the shapes
and how they could develop. I listened to the music again and wanted to get
the softer
and longer notes into the form. I made as many combinations that I could think
of with
the symmetri that I liked. I ended up with different patterns and I knew I was
on the right
track.

I finished working and sent it off to David.
