SOUND SOURCES

A source of constant enjoyment in my life is farting. It cracks me up. The sound of farts is so comedic, and the fun associated with comedy has led me to use wind-passing as a source for this project. First I recorded a few farts and the ensuing laughter. Then in Garageband I modified the sounds into a rythmic pattern. Lastly I combined it with some of my own music recordings. What I've got so far is a soundscape in which echoing farts act as percussion in a fuzzy guitar and drum whirlwind, with a few unintelligible but totally human exclamations bouncing around.
