As the title states, it is a re-interpretation of the 1650 painting by Diego Velazquez,  "Portrait of Pope Innocent X."

Initial Thoughts

The look of the painting seems to reflect a very horrific and distorted image of the Pope, so maybe I could reflect that in my sound. 

One Pig: August// Matthew Herbert 

Joe showed us a few of these pieces depicting the life cycle of a pig and the noises that come from it. I got really intrigued by the August stage, showing the sounds of the pig being cooked and eaten. I appreciated the effort in the mixing to create a certain rhythm and pace to the collective sounds. I'd like to create a similar musical style pattern with my own, but probably in a more creepy way than this particular one. 

Merzbow  

Pulse Demon

Worms Plastic Earthbound

These are the first sounds that came to mind when I first got given the image, so I imagine that I will use this as a basis as to the style I want to go down with the project.
