Improvising from the POV of a sound artist is completely different to being a musician yet it’s completely the same. It’s contribution and communication within a shared space to create a shared feeling or emotion or product. However in the context of sound arts I found it quite liberating as the codes of merit are completely thrown out the window. At a Monday night jazz jam I’m applauded for chops , harmony riffs and soul, but in sound art im not applauded at all, it’s much more of an egoless conversation that applause isn’t actually necessary at all. I think one of the limitations with and within music is that its all about the star of the moment whereas I see sound art as more complimenting , observing or obliterating the moment. Me and shrug where on the most melodic instruments of all feeling most out of place it was hilarious, confided by the notes that once liberated us this unexpected betrayal of the very tools that made us who we are startled us. But it was really fun and it was good to see how everyone interpreted that moment in time.
