Time and Location: 2/28/2014, 8:15 AM, Bedroom to Bathroom at Doug’s House

Sounds Heard: The doorknob turning and the door opening.  You can hear walking across the hall and into another room.  At the bathroom sink, you can hear a toothbrush holder meeting the sink.  Next you hear the opening of the case and the electric toothbrush being put together. The water is turned on, toothpaste is added, and the brush is turned on.  There are a few seconds of teeth brushing.

Sounds Heard: Me stomping through the frozen parking lot and getting into my little Ford Fusion. Featured sounds: My boots crunching through the icy surface of the snow, keys, car door opening and closing, the seat belt reminder, my seat belt buckling, engine starting, radio turning on.

Listen to

Identify the location:
Barnes and Noble cafe.

Identify the sounds:
You can hear a squeak as the book cart rolls in the distance,then you hear someone’s cellphone ring.  You can hear a click on the trackpad of a laptop, and people talking in the background.  You can also hear indistinct music playing in the background.  Then typing on a lap top, which eventually becomes more rapid and dominates the recording.  Then you hear the squeak of the book cart again, then the beep of a headset, and an employee responding over his headset.
