I found how the article reflected on the technological advances of society and how they related to the development of sound arts to be intriguing. I didn’t know a lot of what was written, about the machines built to have very basic versions of what we currently use. Things such as synthesisers and sound for screen back then were impossible and these sound artists created basic versions of what we now have in abundance. The tools and ideas that they had were for me inspiring, to see the vision they had of what they believed could be possible and execute it.
I can see how this article can relate to modern sound installations. As well as how it has a historical importance on the equipment we use currently and decisions made when designing a space. I found the idea of a noise orchestra and using the city and its objects to create an organised sound piece to be something i’d never consider. But since hearing this view I can do agree that a lot things can be used as instruments and what does separate us from thinking it is or isn’t an instrument?
