If I had one suggestion to those just starting in sound design, it would be to stay curious. Interrogate the world and objects around you. See what they have to say.
I talk a lot about mastering, metadata, mixing, & more, but a sense of play is the best thing we could possibly have in our toolkit.
Picked this up at Extreme Noise Records in Minneapolis this week, as good a slogan for the moment as any #DontTreadonMN

Joyeux anniversaire to French composer Éliane Radigue (b.1932) who turns an incredible 94 years of age today! Her work is proof that subtlety can be seismic, and that the smallest shift can change everything. Long live sustained tones, deep attention and Éliane Radigue!

Stoked to have my piece “Ember” included in @citiesandmemory.bsky.social Sounds of the Year compilation. I had a blast working on the piece based around an inspiring field recording from Rafael Diogo. An amazing collection of artists and pieces.

“while the artworld and popular culture seemed to favor spectacle, i was interested in silence, humility, intimacy, and thus began to describe my work as having a lowercase aesthetic—and i viewed the term as a quiet form of protest.”

Vaccines don’t cause autism.
Neither does Tylenol. (I mean seriously WTF?!?!)
The “epidemic” of autism is the result of increased testing, broader definitions, and raised awareness.
LOUDER.
