The Old Man and the Sea is a fixed media electroacoustic piece inspired by Ernest Hemingway’s famous novel of the same name. Listening to Manuella Blackburn’s composition Landline and music performed at the 2019 Manchester Mantis Festival, I was tempted to limit the ‘real world’ sounds in my music using only two sound-sources, a sailboat and water. Through granular synthesis, FFT processing and various plug-ins on software such as Cecilia, Max8 and Reaper, I tried to capture the sound world described in the Hemingway’s prose by manipulating and reconfiguring the sonic fabric of my original sound-sources.
