Disquiet Junto Project 0670: Right of Way
Dear Members of the Disquiet Junto,
This week’s project is a callback to the 11th Disquiet Junto, from way back at the end of March 2012. It’ll be great to hear what people make of it.
And thanks, as always, for your generosity with your time, creativity, and curiosity.
Best from San Francisco, where it is finally no longer summer,
Marc Weidenbaum

Disquiet Junto Project 0670: Right of Way
The Assignment: Music for turn signals.
Step 1: Record the sound of a car’s turn signal (or, alternately, use a prerecorded one, for example at freesound.org).
Step 2: Improvise on top of the recording of the turn signal with as many or few layers of additional sound as you like, emphasizing rhythm (versus melody or harmony), and retain the original turn signal sound, so it is still audible for most if not all of your finished track
Background: This project is something of a callback to the 11th Disquiet Junto project, way back at the end of March 2012.
Tasks Upon Completion:
Label: Include “disquiet0670” (no spaces/quotes) in the name of your track.
