1. February 21, 6:15 PM, Back room of Bits and Bytes
2. Hum from vents, voices from main area of Bytes
3. Voices of people at other end of table, pages turning
4. Voices of people sitting next to me, water bottle being capped, myself chewing
5. Medium. Not many things happening, but the voices are very excited, especially for such a small room.
6. Passionate
7. Vent hum, voices, me chewing
1) 3/17/11-3:00 p.m.-Kitchen on the 12th floor of Alliance Hall
2) The sounds furthest away from me included the ding of the elevator, a television blaring in a nearby study room, buzz of the fluorescent lights, and people talking outside the kitchen.
3) The sounds in medium range from me included the hum of the air vent above, the buzz of the fluorescent lights, person humming near the microwave, microwave beep, popcorn bag crinkling open, chewing and crunching of popcorn, and the kitchen door opening and closing.
4) The tink of my metal water bottle hitting the table, my breathing, and knuckles cracking would be considered sounds closest to me.
5) The sound level was low because only one other person was in the kitchen with me, but there were many dings and beeps around me so there were many sound sources.
6) Agreeable
7) The sound of the microwave beeping, the sound of the television blaring in another room, and the chewing of food.
1) 2/17/11-3:00 p.m.-Honors College Lounge on the 2nd Floor of the Axinn Library
2) Secretary typing and clicking her computer mouse, sigh from person walking by the lounge, printer printing paper, indistinguishable talking in a personal office, and hum from the ventilation were the furthest audible sounds from my position.
3) The sound of people unwrapping candy and chewing, a newspaper rustling, talking, water pouring into glass from a blue water cooler, and shoes clicking would qualify as medium range sounds.
4) My pen clicking, seltzer water fizzing, and my own breathing would be considered sounds closest to me.
5) The sound level was fairly quiet, but the sound activity was high. The sounds I heard were not very loud, but sounds were coming from all over the lounge from many different sources.
6) Pleasant
7) Secretary typing, unwrapping candy, and newspaper rustling.
