Every body experiences life in a different way, I am interested in discovering new voices and new eyes.
Finding natural patterns within my environment and using them as structures for musical score.
Bringing to light hidden connections. Observing and creating.

To whom it may concern,

 

I am currently studying my 3rd and final year of Visual Studies  (BA) at Norwich University College of the Arts. I am fascinated by the connection between music and science, In particular looking at natural patterns and transferring them to a Musical Score. Creating compositions inspired directly from patterns and data taken from my environment and more recently, the body. Critical research such as the Neurologist Oliver Sacks, and the Gestalt Theory have been a great influence in the progression of my work.

 

I have been looking at Electro Cardiography, x-rays and ultra sound and their power to transcribe something internal into a physical pattern for me to work from.

 

I am writing to ask whether there is a way in which I could see these machines in operation? Or perhaps get readings from my own body? I understand that it must be an extremely hectic and busy schedule but the benefits this experience could have on my work are immense. I plan to show this work at my final degree show in May. The readings, the score and the recordings. Along with an installation allowing people to interact, create sound and understand a little more about the fascinating connection between Science and Music.

I hope you

I hope to hear back from you.

 

 

Yours Sincerely

Bryony Devitt
