faking it
It's Tuesday, so tonight Chris and I got together to play music. Still riding high on the success of last week's session, tonight we stretched our wings a little bit, and mostly we fell on our faces. But I still think that we managed to expand the sphere of operations that we're capable of.
Towards the end of the session, we were feeling aimless, so we drew an Oblique Strategy which suggested "try faking it." As a result, we attempted to improvise a folk ballad, giving it the title "Death Be My Bride."
The result was, shall we say, not very convincing, but it was good to at least attempt to create something resembling a traditional song, and it pointed out directions for further exploration, which I think may be the point of the Oblique Strategies. Labels: amateurism, number_none |
