"[T] first thing an electronic composer does is build a set of instruments, a soundworld." -- Brian Eno
"If this word, music, is sacred and reserved for eighteenth- and nineteenth-century instruments, we can substitute a more meaningful term: organization of sound." -- John Cage
I worked on this project in a Senior Projects class under the guidance of Professor Willem Henri Lucas. The idea is minimalist forward-thinking website that allows people to create profiles and upload sound, music, and anything in between. It tries to break out of the mold of bands and albums and instead focuses on individual people and projects. Projects can be ongoing (such as a series) or complete (such as an album). The name might communicate the idea; A "Sound World", or "Worldview in Sound", is one's relationship to the world of sound around them. My Sound World is currently in alpha version and online at http://mysoundworld.com/alpha. Any feedback or collaboration is welcomed.
