Talk to me about using the studio as an instrument...

[evilB]

Hi Sides,

I would look at the effect a recording space has on the sound of a recording - Jimmy Page talking about zep 4 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWI9bMe7gHE.

I would then look at the musique concrete where tape recordings were the sliced/diced and spliced to make new sounds/music - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4ea0sBrw6M

Then I'd look at pro-tools and other recording programs that have given the power of composition and performance back in the hands of the creative - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcjcVcgu1-U

Once you've looked at those then look at the backlash that has happened for things like Auto-tune, punch-in (adding a correctly played passage in to a spot where a mistake has been made on an otherwise correctly played passage). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGiaAiIELME

Then make a conclusion on where you stand on the studio as an instrument.

OR Pick one of those areas and find several examples that show the studio as a creative instrument (either directly or indirectly).

Sounds like an interesting project have fun with it.
