Process

I first brainstormed on what I could make and what materials I could possibly us. I came up with the idea to build a wind chime of some sorts. I scavenged around and also made a trip to the dollar store to find any object that sounded like keys jingling. I ended up finding metal spoons and forks, bottle caps, a cat toy and some Christmas bells. The combination came out to be a pretty okay sound that I could use to represent the sound of keys.

The process of trying to figure out my sound was challenging. This is because when I see my friend Morgan there isn’t much sound that could be made other than talking. After listening to all my videos I finally found a sound that I could achieve. After building my wind chime I performed the sound multiple times. Every time I would “jingle” it all the objects hanging would get tangled up. this because frustrating because I used fishing wire to hang the objects and I would have to untangle them each time.

Reflection

I personally didn’t like this projected. This was because I found it challenging to copy the actual sound that I was trying to make. Other than that it was okay. I enjoyed building my piece and demonstrating it.
