I haven’t posted much on my workshop assignment. I took some photos today of the mock ups I have been making in relation to the piano and pieces from the 5 different composers I have chosen.
As a refresher, I am doing a piece from 5 composers from the
Baroque – Bach
Classical - Beethoven
Romantic – Chopin
Impressionist – Debussy
20th Century – Gershwin
What I am trying to visually explore with these mock ups is the keyboard/piano instrument and ways that I can show the piece of music and it’s relation to the piano/keyboard.
This was the first mock up. Simply a piece of music wrapped around to create a bangle. I am looking at printing the music onto acetate and then winding it up, so you get that layered effect.
These are two types of bangle mock ups. The first has 52 parts, and the second has 88 parts.
This image is just making marks on the keys. I read a piece of music and mark which key is played. When finished it would show how many times a key was touched.
This design is based more on beats and bars. It is more complex and when translated into a full piece of music it will be very long. I think it looks really nice on.
These are four other mock ups that I am working on.
There has been talk in the camp..
The name Kemmo is actually suppose to be pronounced Ke-mo, rather then Kem-mo. It is a long story, ask me about it if you really want to know, I am a good story teller.
So after talks with a respected opinion, we feel an accent may be in order.
This is the original text I was going to be using on my website – but to have them all in capitals makes the accent look lonely.
The two fonts below are just test fonts to see what looks good and is going to work nicely with my site.
Let me know your thoughts on the matter. K.

I have been home and picked up my keyboard and all the sheet music I am using for my Major 6 project.
So, if time permits, I want to learn the pieces that are the basis for each set of pieces for this semester.
After discussing my ideas with my music teaching mother, I now think I have a better grasp on my own ideas and where they are headed and why. The all important WHY?
I think, but I am not sure – What I am attempting to do is turn sound into a solid. Why? Because I can.
