Before starting work on this project, I decided to employ granular synthesis to generate the material. Coincidentally, I started reading Listening through the Noise: The Aesthetics of Experimental Electronic Music by Joanna Demers (2010: Oxford University Press, USA) very shortly after that initial decision. I finished reading the book at about the same time as completing the raw material. The examples presented by Demers seemed to validate my decision to study granular synthesis, and inspired me to push a little deeper into acousmatic and musique concrète principles.
Favourite Moment
No, the whole process was fun and engaging for me.
Advice
Yes, I learned a lot about the innards of granular synthesis.
