I will tell you my plans for the future of this blog
and also what I have been reading/watching/listening to
whilst doing this.
As I have mentioned earlier in this blog
I listen to a vast amount of music,
I'll give you a few things now and do a bigger, more involved list later (links,vids,info etc)
Various Steve Reich (different trains, music for 18 musicians)
currently reading his Writings on Music (1965-2000)
Nobukazu Takemura - Child's View
The Glitch Mob
various Omar Rodriguez-Lopez
BBC Radiophonic Workshop (watching videos, collecting vinyl and listening)
Polar Bear
E.S.T.
Fela Kuti
The New Earth Group
and a hell of a lot more!
The future of this Blog
I am going to keep on PLAYing with this project
I think it has been a good way of learning a variety of things
rather than just falling in to a comfort zone and doing the same thing
I will keep documenting the process
and I will invite more people to PLAY with this idea.
A friend of mine is going to be learning Ableton soon
and is keen to use this as a playful learning tool
so I will also be adding that to this Blog.
I also aim to start making videos in the same way
so I will be posting my results as I start to learn After Effects.
I will also add jams with theplaydoeband to this blog,
although it is not making music to the rules of this project
it's a good example of improvised play
I feel I have learnt a lot from this project
writing what I have done along the way
in a sketchbook has been a useful tool for remembering new techniques
just don't buy a huge book like I did!
