It is interesting getting a perspective on the aesthetics of the (relatively) new faces that have been haunting forum for several months now.
It occurs to me to wonder what might be made of listening to multiple (think 20 or so ) years worth of first year student work in one sitting. What sort of overall impressions, or observations one could make. Of course this is unlikely given the current rate of software development and hence possible techniques that one may encounter. Material from 20 years ago would be possibly tape manipulations, midi based sequences of samples and synthesised voices - possibly presented on tape, or floppy disk. Where would one get access to that sort of hardware now ?
I was hoping to hear the current versions of paper ripping masterpieces, but was disappointed in this. I was also curious to see such a breadth of content when our similar assignment seemed much more focused ie on using our edited paper sounds.
Perhaps this is down to Christian's ability to evolve class material dependant on the actual class, or perhaps it is just down to steady evolution of class material......

Look at it this way. It's unlikely they'll do circuit bending. Mwahahaha.
*Looks around* does anyone care...sigh *shrug*
