1. have a sound experience

2. take one 10 second sample of that experience

3. take that 10 second sample and produce at minimum 60 seconds of audio and upload

4. repeat excercise for same 10 second sample for 9weeks!

Notes: For a lively discussion surrounding your posts, please include the original sample and for each week, post some comments about your process–what is and is not working. What choices did you make and why? What makes your new composition reflective of the original experience?

ADDENDUM:

*After some discussion with Bill and Kupo while visiting back east, it seems that people would like an even more disciplined challenge. Bill proposed we all work off of the same 10 second sample. What do the rest of you think about this? If you like this idea, post a 10 second sound sample and we’ll vote on them this week (by 5/26).

I’ve uploaded an audio player plugin. When you are posting, there is a field for uploads, the upload should end up being in the /audio folder at the wordpress root. I would suggest that users set up a category (should be to the right of the “write post” page in the admin panel for wordpress) so that each user can search for their files by their own category. Hopefully this will help keep our posts organized.

I’ll test out this functionality tonight when i get home. If anyone else wants to give it a shot first, feel free.
