Ciara Adamson

My name is Ciara Adamson and I'm a 22 year old musician striving for continual enhancement in knowledge and creativity. I have always loved music and have had a huge interest in the musical world; I play 5 instruments and sing, write and produce my own music and hopefully sometime soon perform in big venues.

4 solo songs were worked on throughout the project. 2 finished being written and 2 yet unfinished.

5 collaborative songs were worked on throughout the project. All finished being written, recorded and mixed.

Solo work was productive and fun to work on but it was harder to get past a drought of creativity.

Collaborative work was highly productive and creative ideas came with ease alongside motivation to push through lack of motivation.

The Comparison of Solo vs Collaborative work

This project took a deep dive into the relationship between collaborative projects and the productivity of these environments. Comparing the productivity, creativity and motivation of a collaborative setting to that of a solo setting while analysing the amount of work that was done within sessions and also throughout the entire project. While working on music alongside another musician is it easier and more inciting to get work done?
