Author: 1- Date/Time/Location.
4.17.13/12:00pm/My dorm room
2- Identify and list the sounds farthest away from you.
Someone speaking obnoxiously loudly in the hallway; they must be walking by because I can hear their voice grow louder, and then fade out. It sounds like they (or someone they were walking with, perhaps) were swinging their keys back and forth, because I could hear a rhythmic jingling.
3- Identify and list the sounds at medium range from you.
One of my suite mates intermittently yelling and laughing extremely loudly at a television show or movie on her television or computer (which I can also hear, though faintly), another suite mate coughing.
4- Identify and list the sounds closest to you.
Jukebox the Ghost playing from my iPod dock, softly. The steady drip, drip, drip from my heater into the garbage can placed under it as it hums, wheeze-like (I should really get that fixed…), the squeak of my bed as I shift position.
5- Describe the general sound level and amount of sound activity.
Medium level and activity. It’s lower in my room, but it’s certainly higher in my suite mate’s room.
6- Assign a one word description to the “sound environment”.
Manifold.
7- Select and list 3 sounds which are essential to the sound environment.
Rachelle yelling/laughing at her television, Jukebox the Ghost, and the hum of my heater.
