choose and study a sound event of 10-15 minutes in which human voices play a strong compositional role. your event should have a clearly defined beginning, middle and end and display a clear envelope (find this terminology on the mentioned book below). listen attentively and discover the how the voices work together and separately to create the event. if you choose an event that is longer that 10-15 minutes, choose a segment of or episode in the event. the event should consist of a minimum soundmakers. think about your event beforehand, and choose it on the basis of that thought. the group might be a group of friends, your family, the people you work with, a public event (sports,theater,dance class,university class,nightclub,etc). > write 1500-2000 words describing your findings. describe and identify the key soundmaker/voices and introduce the overall shape or `plot` of your event. identify key moments in this plot and note the sounds that create them. describe how relationships between linguistics and paralinguistic soundmaking work to compose the event, and describe how the relationship between vocal and non-vocal sounds influence and shape the event. describe how the voices compete and/or collaborate with each other and with their soundscape during the event. identify, by drawing a graph charting amplitude over time, the envelope of the sound event and the behavior of key sounds, including voices. identify key moments/events. draw a map which shows the sound profiles of the most important sounds/voices and non vocal sounds how they interact. discuss the relationship between the acoustic profiles of the voices and of the non-human sounds in the soundscape. describe, with reference to the terms/values `complexity`, `variety`, `balance`, the extent to which the event composes or fails to compose an acoustic community, and say where the community fits on a scale between `democratic` and ` autocratic` with regard to is structure. say why you think so. *in order to be able to follow the instruction properly, youre gonna need to find the "acoustic communication book" second edition, by barry truax. you need to use this book as a reference and there are many terminologies you can find there. please dont go off topic!!! i really need you to read the instruction carefully. dont forget to provide me the graph and a map of the event you chose. email me if you have questions. thanks **also, dont forget to talk about frequency, acoustic space, signal, soundmark, keynotes, cocktail party effect. and, when you talked about the voices, you''ll need to explain the timbre of each voice. and, explain the is the group that you''re writing about functional or dysfunctional, monologic ordialogic. **ON THE GRAPH, you have to focus on voices, the amplitude(db) of the voice, how loud. and dont forget about the background noise, music, etc that''s occurring as well. **the example of my friend''s event: Hockey arena voices: the coach, the girl sitting beside her, and the player. she also includes her own voice.
