For the final presentation, I decided to create a suspenseful piece using the techniques learnt in the class. My goal was to tell a story of murder, frightful crashes and anxiety through my piece.
To achieve this goal, I recorded many small parts, both from scratch and by modifying the example files provided in the chuck library. To make the piece more interesting, I incorporated some sounds that are naturally considered soothing or associated with happiness such as birds chirping and children laughing, and played on them to create disturbance. Lastly, I rendered some recordings and included some, like the screams and the car crash noicesm as they are in order to achieve a contrast between computer based and real sounds and to intensify the story line.
In addition to my own files, I have played with the example chuck files by adding/deleting additional lines of code as well as by changing their parameters to make them more suitable for my piece.
