Sound Observation 5 – Patrick’s apartment in Astoria

– Date/Time/Location

– March 9th  / 7:00am / Patrick’s room / Patrick’s apartment

2- Identify and list the sounds farthest away from you.

– The sound of airplanes taking off and landing from Laguardia (or possibly even JFK). The faint sound of cars driving by, and a car making a beeping sound as its pulling out of a nearby driveway. The sound of his roommate’s music playing at the other side of the apartment in another room. Birds chirping outside.

3- Identify and list the sounds at medium range from you.

– The sound of the floor boards creaking as his roommate walks from one end of the apartment to the bathroom. The sound of his roomate audibly peeing in the bathroom which is right by Pat’s room, and then going towards the kitchen which is located near Pats room as well. The sounds of the kitchen being activated and a coffee machine beginning to make coffee. The sounds of clanking silverware and dishes being taken out.

4- Identify and list the sounds closest to you.

– Patrick’s heavy breathing and on and off snoring patterns. My own deep breaths. 

5- Describe the general sound level and amount of sound activity.

– The sound level is sort of a hushed lull. There aren’t any jarring sounds… just apparent sounds that can easily be ignored (well… apart from the peeing… that’s kind of blunt). Even the further away – larger sounds – easily fade away if you don’t think too much on them.

6- Assign a one word description to the “sound environment”.

– Gentle

7- Select and list 3 sounds which are essential to the sound environment.

– Heavy breathing, floors creaking, airplanes landing and taking off.
