Sound Journal #3~~Kaitlyn Bancroft

  1. March 11th- 6:00PM-Outside of Axinn Library 
  2. Far Sounds~  Clanking as the wind whips and makes the flag hit the flag pole, thudding of footsteps as people are walking off of the Unispan, wind whistling 
  3. Medium Sounds~ Chirping of birds in trees and the scratching/scuttling of squirrels running up trees and their branches. 
  4. Close Sounds~ Rustling of leaves from the tree I am sitting directly under, the labored breathing of the person next to me as they experience a cold chill from the wind in question. 
  5. There seems to be a lot of sound activity happening but the level it is being produced is very soft and would be considered background noise that goes unnoticed during the regular day. 
  6. Serene
  7. Chirping of the birds, the rustling of the leaves, the slight whistle of the wind-  these three sounds I would say are essential to keeping the sound environment in tact. They all represent sounds in nature, furthermore a representation of how serene nature can be if we stopped to listen.
