Hi, Daryl here.

This will be a short post on the 10th week of IPW.

We've already decided on our project, which is going to "Upcoming music talents in Singapore and how are they faring against the US"

Instead of a physical presentation where we are supposed to make a mock up model or something like that, we've decided to go virtual and use a simple PowerPoint presentation which will explain clearly and surely.

If there is a need to, we will do some other physical presentation that would involve the use of actual instruments to show some "riffs and licks".

Our presentation will be ready by next week, 11th, IPW lesson.

We will also discuss and develop our ideas further.

-Daryl.

MY reflection

Individual Reflection

3: I have learned who are Singapore's Talents,and about many instruments used for making music and the main genres of music.
2: I have not known much about music but after this experience,i know much more and found music interesting.Getting along with my classmates to have a good discussion was both fun and engaging.
1: As music is not really my talent nor interest,i have not know much about it,but i believe overtime i will get used to it.

Individual reflection Siak Yi Kar

As i did not know much about music my group members thought me a lot of things about music. As i learn from them i felt that i was learning something that i did not know much at first. I found music interesting because music gave me a sense of delight and happiness. I found a true face of my friends although i thought my group members were all very bad mannered except for 1 but in this group project i found that i could actually interact with them. I have learnt a lot about the musical instrument the guitar as my group members are all very interested in guitars. I have also learnt about team work so that we can get things done earlier. Thats all folks.

My Individual Comments.

Today we are doing lesson 4 of our GRACE project. My group members and I are now trying to figure out the area that we will be doing our research. After we have done our research and our progress as a group. I want to give a few suggestions to the areas of research, that is the music talents in Singapore.

Music

Project focus: To find out about Singapore's and Asia's upcoming talents and how are they faring against international standard.

The guiding questions that our group has selected to do research on are:

1) how are singaporeans faring internationally?
2) who are the people who are in this category?
3) what is the main language group in singaporean music that's doing well?
4) who are the rising potentials that could do well in the future?

THe areas that our group willl be doing research into are:

1) Singapore music talents
2) Singapore faring internationally
3) Main music language in singapore

Subject

We have decided on the subject of music for our IPW project.

Our meaning of music as in the different kinds of instruments, their advantages and disadvantages, the upcoming music talents, how Singapore is faring in the international music community. We have also decided on the group name- Axis of Awesome. We got this name from a comedy band that is in the US.

1st Reflection

This is the first reflection of the blog.

After much discussion, we have appointed Raphael as The group leader. The group members are:

-Daryl Tan
-Raphael Leong
-Bertrand Tan
- Siak Yi Kar

After the previous IPW lesson, i feel that the timing was a little rushed and disorganised. And, having the lesson at the stand was uncomfortable.

we have yet to...

- find a group name yet
- think of the topic yet

okay. and, we should start a policy where each person rotates the duty of posting weekly.
