Samar's Audio Project

For the audio part of my project I used an arabic drum beat to express the culture I grew up in throughout my life (I created one of the drum layers myself). A north American song and a french song flow in and out of the song to express the other cultures that were in and out of my life until this point. For my object I used an old arabic drum that I have had in my bedroom my whole life, in whatever country I lived in. The drum broke during one of my moves and was taped back together with moving tape, I chose to leave the tape on the drum to emphasize my moving a lot when growing up. If I had a million dollars to make this project I would fill a big room with drums, drums sticking out of the walls, on the ground, and a much bigger central drum in the middle of the room. My audio would be playing in the background and viewers would be able to interact with the piece by playing their own pieces on the available drums.
