Emily Mo shares her process of creating the sound design for the new IDEO Edges website. She discusses how the idea for incorporating music on the site came about and explains her approach to composing the song. A significant part of the presentation details how she integrated various sounds collected from the Cambridge studio, such as a file cabinet, snacks, a CNC machine, a ruler, and a dishwasher, into the musical piece using Ableton software. Emily demonstrates how she manipulated these everyday sounds to create different percussive and melodic elements, discussing concepts like randomness, pitch shifting, and adding effects to achieve a unique and organic feel that aligns with the website's collaborative vibe. She also touches upon the challenges of making a short musical piece and her personal creative process as a musician working with unconventional sounds. Towards the end, she introduces a hardware project involving a portable DVD player being repurposed as a musical instrument, prompting a brief discussion on interactive stage setups and mechanically altering sounds.
