Week Seven Assignment

7/1Creative Assignment

This is the creation of the sound of environment nearby. I recorded the sound of what I heard in library, what I heard at home and what I heard in restaurant and each of them is almost 30 seconds long. While when I tried to combine these three together, I found the sound of restaurant is so loud that it covers other two sound tracks. I tried to mute the restaurant sound track a little bit but I failed.... I then recorded the instrument of me clapping my belly (LOL)with rhythm and put it in the remix.

7/2Reflection

From the sound I recorded, I felt what I heard in restaurant is super noisy while I did not pay any attention when I was sitting there talking to my friends. What I heard in library is way quieter than the sound in restaurant, but it also has a little bit uneven noise that I did not notice when I was busy working on my work. It feels like when I am focusing on my job, no matter on formal situation or not, I would not pay attention to the background noise (or music). Actually, when I heard the sound of home, I felt truly relax because I feel safe in my subconsciousness when I am at home and heard the weak background noise from streets. While when I heard the sound of restaurant, even though it is really loud and mixed with background music, people talking and laughing, it does not annoys me for it makes me feel like I am with the crowd in the gregarious society and I am not alone...I somehow love the noise sound in restaurant...
