I’m sorry, Rych. It’s been a very difficult past few days.
May 1st 2021 Location: Upstairs Hallway of Hope Street
Sounds: me using my “cutie animal voice” to try and get the cat to come here, Berlioz meowing, Berlioz chomping down on some treats, the shaking and rattling of the treats in the box
Location: At Citi Field for a Mets-Red Sox game
Sounds: The ball making contact with the bat of the previous hitter, a fan whistling, the public address announcer announcing the next batter, fans clapping, the batter’s walk-up music, fans cheering.
Location: On a field that is between the Field Hockey Field and the parking lot with the Three Bears Statue. Basically where I did last weeks field recording.
Sounds: Through the large amount of gusting winds and rain, I moved around a rusty old commercial-grade irrigation sprinkler. It creaks and irks as the metal tries to glide across itself, attempting to reclaim the glory days for when it used to with ease. Eventually, from all the moving around, the chain that was on it falls and what was holding it bounces up and down for a bit. I move the rusty chain around itself for a bit, and then I leave it alone entirely, so it may return to its dormant sleep.
My friends and I (Brennan, Tori, Arianna, and Dianté) sitting in the Bread Box (Brennan’s car) in the parking garage of Roosevelt Field Mall on the evening of Free Pretzel Day at Auntie Anne’s. I intended to record just the sounds of the parking garage, but a spider had entered the car and landed on me and Brennan lost it. Tori is cracking up, Arianna is wondering if I had started recording yet, and Dianté is jamming to music.
Location: On a field that is between the Field Hockey Field and the parking lot with the Three Bears Statue.
Sounds: I found a very large stick that I used to cut the air with several times, sometimes I would even hit the ground and a thud like sound would be made. The stick did unfortunately break in the middle of the recording, so it quickly evolved into me breaking it several times, making crisp cracking noises like I was breaking into a walnut, all before the overall sound is engulfed by the wind.
Location: Inwood Park on a Thursday afternoon.
Sounds: Birds chirping, the wind blowing, people chatting, footsteps of people running. The sound of the trees rustling. The whistling of a bell of a bicycle.
Location: the RSR booth in Constitution Hall
Sounds: birds chirping, trees rustling in the wind, wind blowing, footsteps, doors opening and closing, a card being swiped outside, the beeping of the turnstile, my chair moving side to side
The balcony of the student center at around 6:30pm. Music blasting from the Starbucks speakers right below us as my friends and I eat and watch the last scene of Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra.
