Draw, Graph, or otherwise illustrate your listening experience, by miles friday
“draw, graph, or otherwise illustrate your listening experience” is a prompt to reflect on the ways that we listen and hear. It is a page from my “Getting to Know Your Loudspeakers” project, an instructional booklet that proposes a series of listening activities, performance instructions, and diagrams for an individual and two loudspeakers in a room.
Miles Jefferson Friday is a composer who works with a wide range of acoustic, un/notated, electronic, digital, installation, and instrument-building based compositional practices. He aims to explore the personal subjectivities of auditory reception, rethink instruments and/as objects, and propose ways in which the field of music composition can operate more dynamically.
