Final Project: Ableton

For my final project, I’ll be working in Ableton, a music-making program, to create individual “clips” of sounds played by various instruments. Students can create any combinations of these sounds to make a section of a song. They can make a truly unique sound by using factors in the program to modify the timing and order of the notes being played. In fact, there are over 1,000 different combinations of clips available, not even including modifications to tempos or the order of notes. I have two goals of this project: (1) to explore peoples’ abilities to create something unique through the medium of time, and (2) to learn more about how a looping a constant eight bars can alter one’s emotions.
