Abstract

The aim of this Doctor of Creative Industries Research Project is to investigate DIY music –making practice and self as a practitioner in the process of creating and producing a DIY music and sound recording. My research highlights the co-constituted nature of self, meaning-making and music-making through a qualitative approach; drawing on auto-ethnographic elements, first-person narratives of my personal journey, critical reflection and reflexive practice. As an auto-ethnographic study, I am situated in the dual roles of practitioner and the researcher, and the holistic and multi-dimensional nature of this research is intended to provide rich and nuanced data about the nature of self, meaning-making and music and sound-making practices. In particular, I contextualise DIY creative practice relative to three interdependent tenets: music and sound-making practice, meaning-making and self-making, where these tenets are understood in terms of hybridity, agency and subjectivity.

The following represents the formal submission of my Higher Degree Research (HDR) Professional Doctorate Project 1 Document. The document has been split across 7 blog posts due to its size. This 47,000 word (excluding references, bibliography and appendices) document is in many ways equivalent to a traditional PhD Doctoral Program Confirmation Document.
