1A Sounds Out of Place (Dawn Scarfe) 25th September

Listen:

On my Journey home l heard different sound from the underground, l take tube home, so the most notable sound was when the tube arrives and it streaked across the track, it is usually very sharp with some bumpiness, compares to the human talking it become even louder. I also heard some violin played by street artist underground, with the well it creates echo which because even notable when l was still a few meters away. I realised these sound are more notable because it is very different and outstanding compares to the rest of the sound, such as human chating, walking sound create shoes. While we are in the tube for instance, we don’t hear the track sound as much but the announcement. We create tolerance to the sound that consistanly happen, but once there is a new sound it becomes noticeble. Usually high pitch will catch our attention faster than lower ones.

Record:

The issue emerge from the exercise is when l was recording it indoor, the sound is mostly blocked by the building. This allowed most of the sound to be unclear.

When l record the sound outdoor, l heard mostly from the ground, however, when l have it indoor, it focused on the sound that could transmit longer, for example when people yelling, ambulance, airplane will be easier to capture, this is because the change of recording position, from the higher location the sound needs to be more consistance to be captured.
