This week, we got into groups to lay some tracks for the foundations of a composed recording.
Focusing on attention, we were to create a narrative compiling various sounds on the zoom recorders that Brian provided in class.
I thought about myself as a means of figuring out a possible story.
I know that when I wake up, the first thing I do is convince myself that I’m only checking my phone just to check the time.
Lies!
I’ve got an alarm, I know I haven’t missed a beat if I’ve risen prematurely.
Instead, I try not to think about the notifications, which inevitably leads to my innards twisting and knotting around each other, until I’ve given myself a stroke.
I’m convinced a past episode of ignoring notifications is the sole reason for one of my eyes being slightly smaller than the other.
Anyway, our lives are unfortunately structured around our phones and what notifications and recognition we’re receiving from others – it’s sad but it’s a fact.
We made a recording about the rituals of the everyday girl on her way to her Media 1 class.
This is my version of the compiled sounds.
Please, give it your fullest attention.
