Disquiet Junto Project 0757: Screen Time

The Assignment: Interpret this gauzy window treatment as an audio effect

Each Thursday in the Disquiet Junto music community, a new compositional challenge is set before the group’s members, who then have five days to record and upload a track in response to the project instructions.

Membership in the Junto is open: just join and participate. (A SoundCloud account is helpful but not required.) There’s no pressure to do every project. The Junto is weekly so that you know it’s there, every Thursday through Monday, when your time and interest align.

Tracks are added to the SoundCloud playlist for the duration of the project. Additional (non-SoundCloud) tracks also generally appear in the llllllll.co discussion thread.

Disquiet Junto Project 0757: Screen Time
The Assignment: Interpret this gauzy window treatment as an audio effect.

Step 1: Look at the photo included with this project and consider how the thin screen treats the daylight view through the window. Click through for the photo in a much larger size.

Step 2: Imagine how that visual treatment translates to sound. In other words, interpret this gauzy window treatment as an audio effect.

Step 3: Record a track in which you treat sound (music, field recording, whatever you choose) like the visual is treated in that photo.

Tasks Upon Completion:

Label: Include “disquiet0757” (no spaces/quotes) in the name of your track.

Upload: A person participating in the Disquiet Junto should post only one track per weekly project (SoundCloud account preferred but not required). If on occasion you feel inspired to post more than one track (whether to a single account or across multiple accounts), you should clarify which is the “main” rendition for consideration by fellow members and (if on SoundCloud) for inclusion in the SoundCloud playlist.

Share: Post your track and a description/explanation at https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0757-screen-time/

Discuss: Listen to and comment on the other tracks.

Additional Details:

Length: The length is up for you. Is it a langorous day, or a quick pit stop?

Deadline: Monday, July 6, 2026, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.
