AUGUST 2020

Chris Brown

Statement

The score for the piece consists of a six bar-graphs displaying the number of newly confirmed Covid-19 infections on every day between March 1 and June 30, 2020 in six different states of the United States. Each player plays the data of one of these states: New York, Florida, Illinois, Texas, Washington and California. (…) Accuracy in interpreting this percentage of immersion to each day’s data is less important than accurately rendering the wave shown by the 7-day average line on the graph, so that growth and contraction of infections at each location will be rendered by the changing pitch range of each gong.

Statement

When the coronavirus pandemic hit the Philippines early this year, the economy was one of the branches of society that took the toughest blow. However, the stock market data is hardly the first thing people think of when discussing coronavirus statistics, and understandably so. In ₱, I am bringing forward the stock market’s position in the coronavirus narrative and highlighting the flesh and blood that drive this highly technical collection of data by translating the Philippine Stock Exchange index chart to an aural composition.

Statement

I assembled a piece that is based on time and the number 4. For four months at 4 o’clock in the afternoon, a new set of data is released by the DOH showing the rising death tolls, recoveries and new cases of Covid-19 in the Philippines. Bringing the total number of cases to forty thousand on July 4th.
