Journal Entry

Friday, March 26th 3:00

Location: sitting in my car on Hofstra’s Campus, Outside of Breslin 

Farthest Sounds: People speaking to each other as they pass by, people watching videos on their phones as they pass by

Medium Sounds: cars driving by(the tires going over the asphalt), music blasting from cars, squeaky breaks, and horns honking(lol) 

Closest Sounds: the surprisingly strong wind blowing, plants and trees rustling 

Sound Description/Level: Medium. There is a lot of life going on which gives it a busier feeling but it all kind of blends in the background. 

Important Sounds: The tires on the asphalt, people talking and the trees rustling from the wind.

Location: An outdoor table at a small cafe in Garden City

Far Sounds: The cappuccino machine inside the cafe, the bell as people enter and exit the store next door, cars honking, an ambulance going through the intersection

Medium Sounds: The conversations of people at the other tables, kids ridding skateboards on the other side of the street, construction workers backing up a truck, other people eating

Close Sounds: The cars going past the street next to me, the wind blowing, people walking past, my chair scraping against the sidewalk as I rock back and forth, my Zoom class in my headphones

Sound Description/Level: Loud and busy with another sound constantly getting my attention

Important Sounds: The cars passing by, the construction workers, my Zoom class
