[microsound] Re: micro-publics



Yah, so use visuals-it helps. use your body-it helps. use your voice-it helps. & don't be afraid to use narrative sometimes--i have definately been afraid to for too many years. narratives don't have to make sense or sound nice, also---ALSO--to reference the old rave days again, hosting events in weird or unlikely spaces helps too. Last year I co-programmed & coordinated an audio_visual event with local artist-run centre, Paved art & new media, entitled DIGIDOME--and yah, it took place in a Golf Dome--with five video projections onto the dome itself & on separate screens--it was wild!!! that sure attracted the public's attention a bit. :)

Jon,
musicians who create minimal sounds [for example] do it because they want to, they feel compelled to make music in that way; its a ventilation for mixed feelings and is solely done for themselves. Even if only one person turns up to their performance i don't think they're gonna change the way they make music or the style, or start using vocals just to appeal to an audience, an audience that are not actually 'into' the same music. The musician[s] is more likely to change the way that they market/promote themselves.
If you believe in what you do then so will others.
