Field Recording
Location: Outside of Calkins hall, 8:50 AM.
You can hear the shuffling of various people on their morning commute, the dull sound of cars in the background, and the door to Calkins lab opening and closing. It is very still and crisp outside, and no one seems to want to break that silence.

Sound Environment

2. Far: yelling outside, cars
3. Medium: Someone playing the guitar and singing, door slamming shut, footsteps, keys rattling, voices
4. Close: My own breath, my own swallowing, jeans against couch as I shift my legs
5. Overall, the sound level is fairly low the closer I get to myself. Immediately there is nothing going on audibly other than noises I make myself, and although as I move further from myself it gets busier, it is easier for me to ignore those noises.
