KM Music Conservatory is surrounded by different sounds, so I went around the conservatory to capture sounds and most interesting one I have found is the KM choir singing “Mozart’s Requiem- Lacrimosa” inside KM and the heavy machinery sounds behind the conservatory. I was watching a dramatic movie based on World War II named "Fury" a day before the sound walk, so these sounds gave me a cinematic effect of a war and it was quite terrifying to listen to the machinery sounds as I could relate them to the sonic effect of heavy ammunitions in the war field.
In November 2015 we made recordings based on the question chosen by the students, "What is the sound of poverty in Chennai". These results are posted on top.
Previously we asked the question in May 2015: "What is the difference in the sound between the inside and the outside of the conservatory". The question in December 2015 then became "What is the sound of poverty in Chennai" In so doing, we investigated the relations that give meaning to the sounds and music around us as students and teachers and engaged with the city of Chennai.
