Fill Out the Scene Voice Recordings, Have been fixed.

Clip 1- This was outside a small custard shop at the edge of bradford beach, it caught my interest because of the large amount of natural sounds that i had not run into in my field recording.

Clip 2- In clip 2 i inserted the mics underneath a discarded window on the side of the road, it gave the clip the feeling of indoors but was actually outside. The combination of the birds and the vehicles was an odd combination that i also found intriguing.

Clip 3- This clip is the most foreign sounding of the three, i inserted the mics inside of a discarded piece if piping again from the side of the road. the pipe added on ominous feeling to such a plain sound of cars going past me on the street. Because one end of the pipe was closed i picked up very subtle amounts of sound from the house behind me.

Drift Strategy - My Original strategy going into this project was to basically get lost in the suburbs of Milwaukee. I was going to take a bus to anywhere near the lake front walk around in the nearest neighbor hood and see what i can find. I figured he best way to end up somewhere original was to use the Algorithmic Walk. The Second Left, First Right strategy of walking around seemed to be the easiest to remember and hopefully would give me diverse and original sounds. My overall goal with the sounds is to capture the feeling of Milwaukee, i would want the sounds to feel like there in milwaukee. They shouldn't be to odd or foreign sounding, i want my listeners to be able to recognize the sounds and associate them with some kind of experience they have had in milwaukee even if it's as minimal as something like waiting at a bus stop for a friend. I find the sounds of this city interesting and want to invoke memories and thought the listeners of this drift.
