Using words

 Using words in the project gave me a starting point to then take into logic creating sounds and expressing myself 

As I sat thinking about being stuck in a place of discomfort words start to come to me below is what I came up with although I wrote lots more I decided to focus on these words below as I thought they said enough with no sound rhythm melody influence.

The words used on this recording are in the middle panel of the photo I took by scanning myself on my scanner at home the mood they appear to express is stuck and lost Although I used these images I did not progress further with them in my project further development went into creating a piece 

that is spoken word with me singing utilising the tone of my voice while projecting pre-written words having to find that part of me that is truthful and projects the words natural but not overtly performative.  Using percussion strings layering the main vocal pitching down so to a low with the use of eq and distortion and Compression.  I liked what I had come up with however although it didn't feel overly performed it still felt like I could turn it around using the recording of me talking over my work?

so then I began to think about space again could I use the same vocal from me talking about the work. I was wanting to see if I could give it some space by sculpting cutting away and adding in with what i had already created. This could of worked a lot better if i gave it more time however i didn't put as much time into as the other needed more volume control and panning .
