First of all, it was necessary to anlyze and edit the sounds recorded by the Peak District. When I visited there, there were so mnay people there, as a result of recording the sounds, the sounds of many noises and people, as well as the sounds of cars passing by, were often recorded together. My project did not need those sounds, so first modified and edited them through Adobe's audition program.
The composition of soundscape
The study found that the following characteristics of soundscape creation emerged from its evolving practice.
Listener recognition of the source material is presever, even if it is afterwads transformed.
In order to complete the network of manings attributed to the music, the listener is encouraged to draw on their understanfing of the environmental and psychological background of the soundscape material.
The shape of the composition is permitted to be influenced by the composer's understanding of the environmental and psychological context of the soundscape material on every level, and in the end, ideally, the music is inseparable from some or all those parts of reality.
My project was to record the sounds of ecology and use them to make music that people can relax. Therefore, in the creative work process, I focused on relaxing and clam mood. The genre thus decided is ambient music. Soundscape's sound has a lot of ambient tendencies. One of the characteristics of ambient music creates a unique musical atomosphere, in other words, a synesthetic sound. Meditation music that people commonly encounter also belongs to ambient music. In order to further express the ambient feeling, the sound of the synth pad was continuously made to sound like a background. At this time, reverberation was applied to the sound to make the sound more directional. In addition, the edited sound of the recording file also made several tracks to layer the sound so that the sound was not heard fragmentarily. The recorded sounds worked while maintaining theire orginal state as much as possible.The music work was progressed by the Logic programme.
Secondly, video work was carried out on the music work made. First of all, the video is not a primary part, however it was made to help listeners understand. The materials used were made using photos and videos taken there and smaples from the Pixabay site if necessary. Moreover, using the quotes from Schaffer and Krause, it gives people time to think about acoustic ecology once again while listening to music.
