RAIN PROJECT 5/12



THE RAIN PROJECT

PROJECT INFORMATION
Experiment is a definite boundary of unlimited cultivation of a subject matter.This spirit of development is in-line with the aspect of finding knowledge through a series of task to gain results of the targeted subject matter. In anyform of experiment, different expectation of a result may be an unexpected.

Visual sound experiment can be derived as the congregation of musical orsound structure, visual imagery and movement as an experiment that combinesand translate all into a related visual presentation. This simply meansa perception of experimental sequence as “a translation of music and soundas a host to painting or expressive form of movement to an overall visual presentation. This experiment is to invoke emotional thoughts and expressionto interchange music and sound with art as a whole.

The project of our experiment is called The Rain Project.

PROJECT DEFINITION
The Rain Project is a thematic title for our experimental art project. Rain, isthe cycle of condensation of atmospheric water vapour that is released to thesurface of the earth. The tiny raindrops that fall will form various splash ondifferent surface of objects which can be regarded as a form of visual entertainment.The drops of water also creates various sound and pitch as it hit ondifferent density of surface. This repeated cycle is a wonderful natural phenomena that benefits all living things. The inspiration of The Rain Project is based on this unique natural phenomena which consists of two elements,the visual and sound that are the subject for this experimental art.

This is a live experimental art using sound as the core and visual presentation as an interactive platform between the sound conductor and audience. In this project, the methodology and medium includes music and sound installation,videography, photography, painting and drawing.

The concept of open mindedness and free form of expression is needed to develop a new form of creativity in arts. The experiment will be conducted as an information to be shared with all participants. This is an open experiment for all participants regardless of the level of knowledge and creativity in arts and music. This enables audience to experience different level of anticipation,surprises and uncertain events that may occur during this project. Nevertheless,
in the midst of this development, this new creativity experience will benefit all in this unique form of experimental arts.

The use of digital music and videography is also a good experimental method to enhance music. The evolvement of music have been achieved with the use of synthesizer, MIDI, computer and multimedia to compose or produce the sequence in music. Musical genre such as rock, jazz and folk can be enhanced with the exploration of digital music. The unify of all thosemethod transcends sound to a new form of musical genre.

Visual music experiment provides the opportunity to create and mold channels of images and sound in imagined and unimagined ways through different artforms and the emotions of the participants and audience.

Each learning curve from the experiment will enable us to gain insight and better understanding of visual and music in striking the most unique balance.This experiment provides an interactive playground for all participants to feel and create excitements and other form of emotion development.

Every sequence of the experimental art of the Rain Project will be documented by video for reference purposes to enhanced every series of of the experiments.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT
The Rain Project may invoke new energy in creativity through sound, visual,installation and multimedia. We hope to explore, rediscover the collaboration aspect of arts and music in a whole new dimension of visual presentation.The conceptual elements of this experimental art will served to foster deeper understanding between the participant and conductor and music and sound thus gaining a new breakthrough in the local art culture.

This aesthetic development of the experiment will be a platform to congregate different local artists regardless of their respective fields to conduct sound installation, videography, and fine arts in forming an environment of visual and sound. Through music exploration, the possible division of sound to other form of art may be achieved.
