Sarah and I created a peice using the senses, we wanted to make you use your ears more than anything. we did this by blindfolding 50% of the audience and the other 50% were left to experiance it with all the senses in use.
Sarah and I had pre-recorded certain sounds on to a dictaphone. this was probably not the best piece of equiptment to have used but we now know that. as we played one of the sounds from the dictphone we would re-create another of the sounds in the live space. they would hear the same sound twice,but not consecutively, it would be all mixed up. we did this is so they could experience how a pre-recored sound and live sound differed and how it made them feel.
we only had 50% of the audience with blind folds on so we could ask them how each half had felt. if not having a blind fold had ruined the performance or whether it just made it more interesing because they could see what we were doing. we wanted to know if the sounds sounded different to the people with blindfolds.
Other people for example, Jancice's group, they used more technology than we did. they had wired a mic up to a pair of headphones. the listener was on one side of the room and the speaker on the other. the listener also had Beckie sat next to them speaking into their ear. this piece was really affective and made you want to listen to more.
Jack's group had created something that reversed every thing you said so you were speaking backwards. this piece was very clever and worked really well as an installation based piece.
ria's group used frequancy in theirs to create an erie envronment. unfortunatly the equiptment faild just before i was due to go in so i did not experience this one, but from what people have siad they were very succsesful in creating a scary enviroment.
