- Description
- Ngannelong / Hanging Rock is a music video resulting from my practice-led research into the affordances of mobile music and video making technologies. The video and field audio were recorded during one of the respites in between multiple lockdowns in Melbourne, Australia, 2020-2021. The track features samples recorded on location at Ngannelong, also known as Hanging Rock in central Victoria, Australia, where the people from the Kulin nation have lived for more than 26,000 years. Ngannelong / Hanging Rock signifies the practical implementation of the model of setting-based mobile music creation (Koszolko 2021). In this model, I list a range of elements inclusive of Pre-production, Instrumental Performance, Mixing and Effect Processing, Algorithmic Composition, Sequencing and Post-production. The processes embedded in this model allow for the highlighting of the impact of the place on the creative outcome. Performative storytelling explored in my work is site-specific and relies on iOS-based technologies. The approach to production was one of relative simplicity, made possible through mobile tools. The video was shot as a single take with an older iPhone 6s, also used for audio field recordings. Video postproduction was accomplished with two iPadOS apps: Efekt, where visual effects were applied in real time by performing various gestures and LumaFusion for edits. Music was composed and arranged with the Korg Gadget app on iPad Air 2.
