Jade speaks to David and his collaborator Martin Coat about their Arts Council funded development project ‘MonoMyth’. Martin and David set out to deconstruct sound, from its physical qualities to its effect on brain waves. We discuss:
- How to approach research and set an intention for a large project
- The impact of our sonic environment on mental and physical health
- Uses of the human voice
- How sound can be used for healing
To close the episode we will share one of the pieces Martin and David produced for the project, titled ‘Seven Rotations’. The piece is designed to be listened to for relaxation purposes – so please do not listen while driving or operating heavy machinery!
Listen to the rest of MonoMyth here.
