So here’s another post that I forgot to post up.
Okaayy you can sayy awkward and scary. The noises kinda creeped me out at first and then I had this sudden urge to just exit the clip and find something else to watch but then I felt as if I was hypnotized…okay maybe that’s pushing it, but it was very appealing.
For some odd reason the first thing that came to mind when I was listening to this clip was Oliver Twist don’t know why but it did. Maybe it was because of the slowness of the song and the singing of the choir. Reminded me of orphans in an orphanage eating porridge.
To tell you the truth I had a hard time finding sounds the interested me or sounds that I knew nothing about so I would be able to ask questions for. So I thank the few classmates’ blogs,who some I don’t even know who they are for giving me this idea of sound.
So epitaph I tried guessing what it meant but the only thing that came to mind was a graph which totally doesn’t making any sense. I dictionary.com it and its means one of two things : a commemorative inscription on a tomb or mortuary monument about the person buried at that site or a brief poem or other writing in praise of a deceased person.
Even though the background sounds is from a choir this artist, Murray Schafer, managed to link the visuals and sounds together. And even though the visuals don’t make sense at first but as you listened to the sounds it gave it meaning, a significant meaning. Why does this artist choose the epitaph for moonlight as a video for this particular piece? Is the piece reflected upon the epitaph for moonlight? These are one of the many questions that bother me. And why does every sound clip I list to have to be so depressing and gloomy??I feel so down and sleep now, why couldn’t this be a happy-go-lucky kind of thing.
Well better luck next time.
It was a depressing video nevertheless interesting.
