1- 2/27/13 10:00 P.M. My suite.

2- Talking from rooms downstairs, Faint music, Sniffling

3- Faucet running, Toilet flushing, Ventilation, Doors

4- TV,

5- A low hum with miscellaneous sounds

6- White Noise

7- TV, Ventilation, Faucet

It was interesting to me how, in my field recording, much of the sound environment was lost to the quality of my laptop’s mic. In it you are unable to hear the farthest sounds. Some of the medium range sounds blend in with the ventilation. Most of the sounds are distorted.
