Amplified, sampled and looped

The sound of Andrew's drawing is amplified, sampled and looped using a contact microphone and effects pedals by John. Andrew drew circles of differing sizes, reacting to the rhythm he made as he drew. He later experimented with drawing grids using different pens and pencils, all resulted in different sound effects.

I used a contact microphone to capture my voice. John sampled these different beatbox effects, which we looped and layered together. It sounded pretty good
