Rhetorical context

  • What are your purposes and goals for this project?

My purpose and goals for this project is to bring attention to how text is taken and formed into music, but more specifically in poetry. I want my project to bring light to how form changes from text to song. My Audience for this project is anyone who is interested in poetry, activism and how its seen in poetry and music.

Genre

The genre for this project is a literary analysis. Some rhetorical strategies for this genera include good evidence for supporting the topic. Strong vocabulary will also be helpful for this genera.

Structure and organization

I haven’t completely figured out my structure for my radio show but I really want to use some Moor Mother’s live readings of her poetry. As of right now I am thinking about doing a little bit of history of Moor Mother and some of her pieces then transition into forms of her written text then to her music.

  • What kind of audio do you need to collect?

For the audio, I want to collect pieces of Moor Mother’s live readings and some of her music pieces that I plan to analyze as well

  • Where and how will you collect these audio assets?

I plan to use apple music or spotify for Moor Mother’s songs and YouTube or any other websites I can find videos of her reading her poetry.

  • How and where will you organize these assets?

I’m not 100% sure on how i’m going to organize them yet but I think I’m going to start with maybe an interview or just a live recording of a poem.

Deadlines

Deadlines: In order for me to get this radio show done by the due date, December 9th 2024, I will need to complete the show as a whole, but also the smaller checkins that include certain amounts of the show done, as well as research in the topic and exactly what pieces of sounds I want to use form my sources. To finish this project on time I will devoting Tuesday’s and Thursday’s during the afternoons and possibly Saturday’s if I need more time.

The Journalist’s questions

For this project my professor and my classmates are helping me with composing it and offering support to me when needed. I still need to gather a couple more literary sources and gather information from those. This project will be heard by my classmates, professor, and it will also be heard on Siena Air by students passing by. This project is important because it will hopefully get more people interested in spoken poetry. For this project, I want to be time efficient when working on it so I am not behind. I know how much work radio shows are and it is very easy to fall behind so making sure that I am on top of my work will help me properly stay on track to meet all of the project goals and deadlines.
