Great experiment! Keep it up, you discover some interesting things!

[nais26]

Wow, that was really cool, i'm gonna try it :)

[heydudemansup]

ceewwwl

[llVIU]

little girl, you fail at trying not to be a dumb but good looking girl

[Sabley]

@llVIU excuse me?

[NevinJarek]

@Sabley Well, yes, its interesting, an attractive person that is interested in developing her being in order to obtain success instead of obtaining a success emulation in form of praise from admirers of your physical attributes. And,,, oh, wait, I checked your channel, you're actually the most incompetent person I've found this week. People, don't mind her, she's the type of musician and scientist that can only perform this, Cage's 4:33, and will only work in a lab to emulate Ke$ha's tech! =P

[JunoHart]

i don't really get it...i got the original

[rakoonloufa88]

nice horny....

[MrChepsyea]

she is not cute at all, the fact she didnt fell asleep while listening to lucier´s piece is what´s really remarkable!

[ironpizza]

she's hot

[dixielandfarm]

It is an amazing piece, and people either get it or don't. The ones that do I think appreciate SOUND more, and can find music where most can't.

[DivisionbyZer0]

fourier transform ftw

[darbsound]

This is great stuff!!!! Lucier is amazing and its wonderful to see you do this. Cheers!

Awesome!

[fetuss]

h8 u

[Sabley]

@fetuss ok...

[JunoHart]

@fetuss you're a fag

[BrokenBjartur]

Nice. I love this experiment, or even these kind of experiments, for the matter. Some other dude is trying the same, with both audio and video, so it'll be interesting to see what happens. He's up to the 1000th right now. Probably just this harmonic kind of sound and a brownish/blank video.

Anyways, loved your experiment. And it only took 15 times to get to this point? Maybe I'll try this then, if the results are this immediate.

Oh, and you're absolutely gorgeous =P.

[Sabley]

@BrokenBjartur thank you! haha

Yeah it only took 15 times because I have a very open living room with a loft, so there's just tons of reflections and reverb.

[BrokenBjartur]

@Sabley

Ahh, that makes sense. Not sure how well our house is suited then. Might try anyways, if I get myself something to record with, that is.

Cheers.

[criticaledition]

nice!

[thederekwashere]

your hot

[Danington138]

wow a hot girl on youtube and verbal diarrhea isn't coming out of her mouth for once... this is an incredibly rare thing

[Sabley]

@Danington138 hahahahahah thanks

[HunterKing]

@Danington138 oh look a girl does something completely not-attention-grabbing on Youtube an nobody talks about how hot she is!

[justdepDOTcom]

Awesome!!!

[devilzworkshop]

that is intergalactic ^^ , i love that sound on new bands, post-rock or prog, u r lucky to be studying what u r, good luck :)

[hebesphenomegacorona]

haha this is such an awesome piece of "music"

it seems like you managed to get rid of the rhythm of yr speech too so yeah. that's cool ahah

[IgorSavtchenko]

Hehe

[IgorSavtchenko]

You know what? Scratch that. Anything else by Lucier in your priority musical listening thing should be "Music On a Long Thin Wire"

[IgorSavtchenko]

You are amazing for even knowing about this, let alone doing this. I must now subscribe to your channel. Check out Lucier's record called "Still and Moving Lines of Silence in Families of Hyperbolas. The microtonal glassandi from the percussive instruments in it are just amazing.

[Sabley]

thank you so much. i will definitely check it out :)

[TheDadsr]

i am listening to the 45 min version its beautiful!!, im curious to try this out, does the voice have to be recorded at specific dB´s? i dont want to blow my speakers...

[Sabley]

no idea. i can't even set the gain on my microphone in the computer haha

[TheDadsr]

hahahaha well thanks anyway ill proceed with caution then :D

[WashashoreProd]

Interesting study in distortion and reproduction. A question about the camera work -- it looks an awful lot like some kind of PXL-2000-style filter. How did you do it?

[Sabley]

There was definitely nothing fancy involved in the camera haha. I used a mac iSight camera (built into the computer).

[freudastaire]

you are as beautiful as the music, and i love Alvin Lucier's piece

[TPDR08]

I just did this in my basement with subwoofers (I have a low voice) and the whole house shook. If you want to make it interesting do the same thing with some a Capella music. I used the national anthem by En Vogue. It resonated so nicely with the concrete walls

[Sabley]

ooh good idea. i need to rent a microphone and try this in my apartments stairwell, concrete and cinderblock. the echo reverb would be overwhelming ahah

[ottopasquier]

People are so empty and so scared to die one day that they imagine that there is something bigger than them ..... THERE IS NOTHING OUT THERE PEOPLE ... GET OVER IT

[Sabley]

this has nothing to do with any sort of personal belief or anything....this is an example of psychoacoustics and physics....

[because88]

I've only just listened to a thirteen minute version online and I thought it was incredible. I love the crackles and scratches of the analog drone. What about it blew you away? I'm not sure if I could explain it.

[Sabley]

i'm not even sure.

i guess i was fascinated by how his speech turned into a melody with a very unique rhythm.

[because88]

The short version's way different. It's the 1969 original. I'll put the url in - just swap-out the stuff in brackets. --  ubu(dot)com(slash)sound(slash)­lucier(dot)html

[Sabley]

thanks :D

[nateislegend]

Now you sound really smart lol

[Sabley]

sarcasm?

[nateislegend]

oh not at all.
