Raindrops and Rooftops

For this assignment, we had to imitate the sound of weather using objects only within reach of the computer. Sounds easy, right? Not so much. I picked this one because it seemed like it would be fun but it was harder than I thought. First of all, I don’t have much within reach of my computer. Second of all, imitating weather sounds is harder than I thought! Even “cheating” a bit and widening my…

Memory Lane

For this assignment, I chose to take a stroll down memory lane. The assignment is to pick a song that reminds me a certain time/place/or memory and then talk about it. I chose “Don’t Stop Believin’ ” by Journey. It always reminds me of my junior year in high school. That was the only year I ran cross country (I ended up breaking my ankle and requiring surgery that spring) and this song was…

I honestly have no idea how to remove the words from a song, despite all my playing around on Audacity so I had to…

My Day Through Sound

For this assignment, I had to take sound clips from throughout my day and combine them into one long clip. My family went snowboarding last weekend at Wintergreen Resort and I thought that would be a fun time to take the recordings. I don’t actually have a voice recorder or anything so I ended up recording the sounds as videos on my iPhone. Then, I used audacity to upload them and combine them…

What a Song Might Mean to You

What a Song Might Mean to You

Music has always been a very important aspect in my life. It’s so hard to choose song that reminds me of one particular moment. Music has been woven throughout every single important event that I have experienced. These songs conjure both good and bad memories, but no matter the memory they are still important to me. As I’ve grown older, I’ve realized that certain songs remind me of some of my…
