The version corresponding to the mother-tongue of the students is played reversed (without warning), so as to introduce to the students, the reverse playback function.<br \/>\r\n\r\n\t<h4>Step by Step<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>The teacher asks each student to select (with the selection-tool) one of the \u201chello\u201d greetings: &#8220;sounds &#8211; varia&#8221; bank &gt; [hello]. The student activates this sound when the conductor points to them.<br \/>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>The teacher points to each and every student, until each sound is activated (tutti). Once tutti has been achieved, a moment is taken to appreciate the \u201cTower of Babel\u201d effect (chaotic mixture of languages, phasing effect&#8230;).\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<li>Following the gesture of the conductor, the student initiates a glissando by slowly sliding their sound into the extreme high register, using the pitch\/speed tool.<\/li>\r\n<li>The teacher initiates another glissando, this time in the opposite direction: a glissando down to the lower register. <\/li>\r\n<li>The teacher can optionally add the reverberation effect.<\/li>\r\n<li>The teacher ends the experiment by either cutting all sounds suddenly or by initiating a slow decrescendo.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Assessment: Were the crescendos and decrescendos well executed (smooth and following the gesture of the teacher\/conductor)? Were the glissandos well executed (smooth and following the gesture of the teacher\/conductor)? When using extreme variations of speed, can one still understand the words spoken? Which images and sensations come to the mind of the student during these extreme variations?<\/strong><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\nVARIATION: The group is divided into 7 sub-groups, each responsible for a different \u201chello\u201d greeting, allowing interesting cross-fades and polyphony among\/between the groups.<br \/>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>NOTE: The teacher can ask a student to conduct.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/variateur.jpg\" alt=\"variateur\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"2526\" width=\"1956\" title=\"variateur\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\r\n\t<h3>Related Activities<br \/>\r\n<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/activite\/the-hidden-sound\/\">The hidden sound<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1400,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","inline_featured_image":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[250],"class_list":["post-2437","activite","type-activite","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-free-activity","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":{"activite-description":"","activite-zip":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/e280a2-tour-de-babel.zip","activite-video":{"ID":1427,"post_author":"6","post_date":"2018-09-24 12:10:04","post_date_gmt":"2018-09-24 16:10:04","post_content":"Donner un sens au d\u00e9sordre.","post_title":"Babel","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"babel","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-10-12 17:47:34","post_modified_gmt":"2018-10-12 21:47:34","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/?post_type=video&#038;p=1427","menu_order":0,"post_type":"video","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},"activite-soustitre":"Making sense out of chaos"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activite\/2437","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activite"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/activite"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2437"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activite\/2437\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5099,"href":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activite\/2437\/revisions\/5099"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1400"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2437"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fonofone.uqam.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2437"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
