Medium is the message makes me think of my work in lighting design. I have expanded into the world of installations and site specific theatre and I have learned that the location and the environment in which lighting is perceived has a strong effect on an audience or viewer. A source of light that is hidden and keeps the audience unaware of the cause of the source makes the material much more in focus, where as if the viewer/audience can see the light source then they are much more aware of what is in front of them and they can make several different judgements as to what they are watching. As far as what this can have for collaboration it kinda deals with the eye of the beholder, because we are limited to the position of the camera, the viewer is very limited as to what they can see and experience and that has a great impact of the perception of the performance. | Medium is the message makes me think of my work in lighting design.

According to Bill Fontana, the transfer of a sound to a different place alters the listing mode from the event to the continuous, because the sound is not linked to the original events anymore and can be experienced as a continuous flow with musical qualities. | According to Bill Fontana, the transfer of a sound to a different place alters the listing mode from the event to the continuous, because the sound is not linked to the original events anymore and can be experienced as a continuous flow with musical qualities. | ||

I feel that the sound of the room as everything to do with the understanding and perception of the room. Our sense of sound is one of the most acute to memory and once that changes then our understanding of the space turns into a whole space, probably one that is unnatural. This unnatural feeling stems from the sense of a new, probably uncomfortable space/sound relationship. | I feel that the sound of the room as everything to do with the understanding and perception of the room.

The same applies here: by the mismatch with our expectation, the sound and the instrument itself seem artificial, demanding attention and inviting to dive into the perception of the object and the sound – simultaneously and successive. | The same applies here: by the mismatch with our expectation, the sound and the instrument itself seem artificial, demanding attention and inviting to dive into the perception of the object and the sound – simultaneously and successive. | ||
If an object that is well known or used often creates a different sound then the result can be shocking. If my alarm clock were to come up with a live rock concert sound then it would create an uneasy, very unnatural feeling. A person's imagination would have a lot to do with the person's response to this sound. | If an object that is well known or used often creates a different sound then the result can be shocking.
