The Monthly Project series allows participants to follow a single compositional prompt as a shared class project. For this month's project we are thrilled to have composer, Philosopher of Listening, and founder of Room 40 Recordings, the illustrious Lawrence English!

The compositional prompt reads as follows:

Using the power of studio magic, you are to create a virtual speculative sound walk using only found sounds you find on the internet and not your own field recordings.

For those unfamiliar, a sound walk is a physical walk through a specific listening space, often aided by original recorded musical or sonic arts materials played back in ear. Since this is a virtual sound walk, you are to create this speculative listening space entirely within the box in the DAW, and since it’s made entirely through found sounds, this speculative listening space doesn’t necessarily need to exist in our literal world.

Take us on a walk through this speculative virtual listening space and utilize the production and processing tools of your DAW to make it as immersive experience as possible using only the sounds you find online. Utilize resources such as freesound.org to gather materials, and reference the field recording compositions of composers such as Annea Lockwood, Francisco Lopez, and our own guest facilitator Lawrence English for inspiration.
