When I was thinking of audio installations, I was kind of stumped because I had NO idea of what I wanted to do. Then I remembered I went to Disneyland California Adventure last winter and saw this amazing water show. It has sounds from classic disney movies and their catchy songs we all know to well. As the show goes on the colors change to the theme, and while they are playing a clip from a movie there is a wall of myst acting as a screen. I went into depth and Joshua Horner is the master mind behind this magical project. He is from Austrailia and is a choreographer. Disney wanted him to create a unique style that would hit each point, and make the show look balletic, showing the graceful moves of the water as the show goes on. So to create this show he and a partner used dance moves to create the flow of the water using arm motions and hand motions. Overall this show is quite amazing, if you ever have the chance head out to Disneyland and check it out! -JULIA JAMES

This is a really good post, because you see a lot of postas about audio incorporation with water, and you would think that they do that because it is easy, when really it is quite the opposite. Water is so easily influenced, one breeze , or technical malfunction and the entire work looses its purpose. It is the science of a thousand details.

I absolutely love this post, it is my definite favorite so far in the semester! I think it might have to do with my immense obsession with anything that has to do with Disney. :P But no, with that being said, the installation looks amazing, I'm sure it was an extremely complicated artpiece to install and I'm very glad that they took their time into making sure that every detail was right. Awesome, awesome find! It makes me want to go to Disneyland ridiculously bad! Haha
