Reflection:
I am not really quite sure how I feel about using sound as a material. The concept is so unfamiliar to me since I've never tried it and haven't seen much of it as an artist myself. The first step for me would be educating myself of the range that is out there within sound art. I can go about starting a sequence lesson with sound art as the main material. I can go about the umbrella theme in different ways:
1. I could start by introducing some sound artists that may spark interest to the students as a start, to expose them to it as a form of art as much as I can. I imagine the culture and atmosphere of every class to be different. I would carefully need to arrange what kinds of artists would best suit them to motivate accordingly.
2. I can have students listen to sound art, immerse them into the art without giving a framework about it. We can discuss and dialogue about their experience in hearing it. I imagine this to be interesting to hear. I would call this lesson 'First Impressions'.
Potential Lesson Ideas:
Material: Sounds
1. Objective: Through editing a sound that reflects a theme of something they feel strongly about, using an audio recorder, students will learn that sound can be used to represent a variety of feelings.
2. Objective: Through recording a sound they hear in their daily lives and depicting a memory or event that relates to it personally, using an audio recording device, students will learn that the sounds of their everyday can be experienced in different ways when put into other contexts.
