At this workshop, we will close listen to a collection of audio clips recorded in several locations. Though we often think of soundscapes as a monolith - "the sound of wind" or "the sound of rain" - there is often so much more that reflects our unique surroundings in that moment. The goal of this workshop is to dissect audio elements and begin to cultivate a sharp ear for the world around us.
Recommended Supplies
Pen and paper to take notes
Headphones
A somewhat quiet room (probably not best in an airport)
Additional Information
The audio clips we will listen to can be found on Fil's website HERE. (No need to download beforehand, we will listen to them together during the workshop.)
