Field Recording

Posted on May 12, 2024 by previous-student

Location: my kitchen

In this field recording, you can hear my roommates talking and my cat purring. It is a very typical night at home, and all of us are talking about the recent club elections my roommate just had.

In this recording, you can hear my girlfriend and I bullying the cat as my roommate types on their computer. The air conditioner is going, and you can occasionally hear me hiccuping.
