Francesco Felletti - It’s just a COIN!
Yulin Huang - How To Whiten Your Teeth At Home (Complimentary)
YH: Because I didn’t want to forget, I recently recorded some instructions the dentist gave me on some complimentary whitening treatments as part of my 4-year invisalign journey. I wanted to use this audio but didn’t want to expose their voice so I got curious about how to distort it so it becomes anonymous. I played around with the voice changers on capcut and the result is quite disturbing, some coming out quite clear and some sounding like non-words. The accessibility to these tools (that manipulate a human voice to mimic another ‘human’ voice) gives me an ominous feeling. Voices include characters such as ‘Mentor’, ‘ASMR’, ‘Psychic’, and ‘Flirty Male’.
Sooo basically this COIN is not just a coin! It’s a coin that could make the whole city sound. It looks like a normal coin, but it is not only a coin. With the coin the city can be played like a musical instrument. Everything becomes beautiful because of the COIN. Please believe in that coin!
This idea became the base for a musical about a coin. In the story, there is one person who is sceptical and believes the coin is just a coin. And there is another person who believes in its magic. A magic that can change the way we see the world!!!
