Granted I'm working from some hazy memory while I write this so it will pretty much be very general recollections.
I unfortunately got to class late and came in during the end of Shamar's piece. I was actually kind of disappointed because what I heard really intrigued me with the layering of live recorded sound and the mixed loops. I wanted to hear the piece from the beginnig to listen to the progression of layering. Mario's piece immediately said 'dance' to me,or maybe my pre-knowledge of him being a dancer colored my impression. either way the rhythmical pulsing seemed like something that would accommodate a composed movement piece with it's rise and fall. Matt's piece seemed like a good beginning point for the sound he wants for his play proposal. I think given more time he could tweak and mix the sounds in so that it sounds more full and fleshed out. I owe alot of the roughness to the late stage he got his computer and have full confidence he'll be able to move it into a more polished direction. Mike's 'piece' was still in that experimental stage of working with the new technology so I really wasn't able to get too much of an impression as to an actual direction he was going in other than playing with the idea of generative music via MIDI files. I think I missed everyone else'.
