Sound 5



My last sound was of me walking back on Oakland, but waiting at Locust for a while. Since thee that Coffee Shop in that area. I had the microphone apart, one facing traffic towards the left of me, and the other towards the right. The different pitches of traffic was unique to me.

One of my unique sounds but shorter, was the union water fountain. But before I get to the fountain, I am leaving from my apartment, and walking to the union fountain. For this particular sound I walked around the actual fountain trying to get different sounds. I ha the microphone at the shoulder width apart hoping to get different aspects of sound.

For this specific sound I decided to walk from the corner of Oakland and Kenwood and walk to the Campus Union. Here I walked a bit around Campus Union. Then I went to the corner of Maryland and walked home towards Maryland Apartments. As I walked, I just had one speaker in each hand and collected the atmosphere sounds.

Sound 2




There's a lot of commotion that tends to go on around downtown area, which for me is by Locust and Oakland. For these sounds I decided to pace back and forth between Locust and up to Kenwood. I had one microphone pointing towards Locust and the other one pointing towards the stores across the street.

The first collective sounds that I have collected occurred down by the parking lot of Sandburg dorms. There was a fence down there, so I did some creative sounds with that, and then after that I noticed a bunch of students as well creating their own sounds so I decided to collect these sounds as well.

Drift Strategy

My strategy was quite simple for my first Drift walk. I went around campus collecting sounds outside, since there was a lot of commotion going out there, and then I decided to go downtown close to my apartment. These roads I chose because I always noticed that there was a lot of people around the Oakland and Locust corner and its surrounding area, so I thought I would investigate.
