Rise and Shine Audio Adventure

Down on the Farm
The goal of this assignment was to record sounds that I hear daily, but may be unfamiliar to others and turn it into an audio story.
For this assignment, I chose to let everyone hear the sounds I hear everyday out on the farm. The audio clip below will walk …
Constructing Construction
I like how everyday sounds, when taken out of context, can turn into something completely different. This led me to try the Familiar Sounds assignment. I began by recording my bathroom fan in Audacity. The sound itself is very rhythmic, and has a somewhat industrial feel to it. This …

For my third audio assignment, I chose one that was always created. This assignment called to create sounds that are familiar to us, but may be strange to others. I included crickets chirping, frogs croaking, an airplane, and a ceiling fan. These sounds exists at my house. The crickets …
Familiar Sounds- Fan
Here is the Familiar Sounds assignment that is 2 points. I wanted to do another sound that I hear a lot, besides my dog. I did my fan. I always have to sleep with noise on and for it to be relatively cold in my room. So, the fan gives …
The Sounds of Veronica’s Time
2 Stars
For this assignment I decided to use all the sounds that you would hear in the 1940s but not so much today. I started with a rotary telephone since they emerged in that time. Next a typewriter, an important tool during World War Two. After that a radio …

A day in the life (ds106 remix)
The Familiar Sounds assignment was a great choice for my first audio assignment this week. I have to say I was/still am very nervous about these audio challenges. After playing around with Audacity for a good hour and a half last night, I walked away equally …
Daily Sounds
Recording daily sounds was an assignment that made my roommates think I’m crazy. I walked around the house with my phone recording noises of my alarm, flushing the toilet, using the microwave, locking my door, and more. It’s interesting to listen to the sounds isolated. I never really think about …
Collier: Everyday Sounds
Here is a recording of some everyday sounds that I thought would be interesting for this project. These sounds are except sounds. I walked down the block recording every sound and conversation I heard. Busses. cars, trucks, manholes and so forth. I arranged these sounds to make a composition that …
Berlin Tea Story
Tea is essential for my daily routine. I presume if I had not any tea during the day, I would sleep all day. I do not know, but I rather mind exploring this assumption.
In the ds106 audio assignment Familiar Sounds we are asked to record some sounds that are familiar …
Guess the Sound?
Try and figure out sounds that happen everyday! You might surprise yourself by either knowing what it is our not knowing at all! Have fun trying to guess the sound! I used an app on my iPhone called SoundCloud! This is a great challenge that actually will challenge yourself!

The Serger Story…
When I saw the two star Familiar Sounds assignment, I knew that I could use the sound I recorded from my serger. This is the sound story created by serging the cuffs of a pair of pants. As I serge I go quicker sometimes than I do others and …
Tlick-Tlock
A familiar sound in my room, pretty annoying to everyone else. It’s the ticking of my wall clock, a sound I never noticed until I had my boyfriend stay the night. It kept us both up at night once it was pointed out to me, it is an easy fix…
CAN YOU HEAR ME?!
Hmmmm, well if you’ve missed me in the past week, I’m sorry, but I had the opportunity to take a break from doing ALL my schoolwork, and I took full advantage of it. While I haven’t posted anything in a week, I have been working on different things for DS106…aka…
