Composition

The primary objective in my composition is to capture unspoken human emotion through sounds from nature, capturing minimal human voicings. Interestingly, I want the human emotion to replicate the life of a human being: birth, growth, development, maturity, and eventually death. Here is how I want to map this out: In the beginning, I wish to have a low, processed groggy sound that represents something being made and formed. That low groggy sound then evolves and becomes unprocessed to represent birth. Right at the time of birth, I want the pitch to swoop up into a high energy 5+ kHz sound with lots of processing and "fluttery" intricacies (12+ kHz). I will call this section "Alive." After the "Alive" section, I want sounds that represent human growth and development. Sounds that represent maturity and learning, such as repetitions to represent "light bulb" ideas that we suddenly recollect. After this maturity section, I want a section that devotes itself to a time of sorrow (possibly death within the family) or depression. For this depression section, I wish to include sounds that are very dark. I want clean sounds first, then more and more processed sounds (distortions) that represent deeper feelings of hate, rage, and negativity as depression is further and further entered into.

After the depression, I want to go back and have ghosted recollections of the maturity section. At this part, the human being resolves his/her sorrow and that stage of life becomes a learning (maturing) process. After the second time through the maturing process, I want a sound that represents new life (marriage, baby, new family). I want hints and "bread crumbs" of the "Alive" section to come here in a more playful way. After some moments of this "Alive" section, I want a time of relaxation sounds. Sound that relate to being old and wise, that only come with time. Finally, I wish to reverse the
