Your list of Transcendant Experiences

Transcendence expressed as something extraordinary Read the full description.

Default-piece-image-1 In this piece, my hope was to express transcendence as something extraordinary, and as something that is beyond human physical experience. It is structured around a voice reading a list of activities that can be extraordinary, which are then in turn sonically described. The ultimate emphasis of the piece though, is on silence ? or the absence of any thing, any physical experience.

Review of Your list of Transcendant Experiences

Intriguing use of sound. In the beginning, I believe that the "travel" sound was too loud. However, the nature, music and love sounds were executed much better. Since this is technically sound art, I can't hold it to the same standards as a radio diary. However, I believe sound was used well, perhaps in an explicit, nearly cheesy way. The beginning was interesting but the piece did not impart as much as it could have. Nice experimental work that had strong potential for much more.
