Footstep
Sound clip #1
When we walked in Brooklyn, we feel the sounds in the environment are very diverse. The sound made by people and the sounds made by machine are all happened in the same time, and all the sounds can be heard separately. We recorded different sounds in today's trip and remixed it into a new clip, in order to represent the diversity of the sounds in Brooklyn.
The main shaft of the first clip is the footstep in the Brooklyn. We walked on different materials of ground and made different sounds while we travel in different sites. The clip is start from the sound of footstep on hard surface to the ground with stones, and end on the sand ground. In the mean time, the environment sounds are paralleled broadcast, such as trucks, cranes and subways. The activities of people are including as well, the chatting, conversation and the presentation. The diverse sounds in the background interpret the density of activities in the site we have been to today.
Dialogue
Sound Clip #2
We call the second clip as “Dialogue”. This represent not only the dialogue within one scene, we also staged conversation between different scenes.
We started with the first Thomas Balsley’s speech on the Gantry sate park plaza. We could hear a little bit environment sound. And then as he mentioned about the open window, the next sound we want to mimick the open and close of the window but actually it’s the sway of a wooden deck floating on the water.
To keep some kind of continuously element through out, we connected with another speech on the Rooftop farm she was talking about planting grains. So we follow up a sound effect of a mower on the previous plaza to represent the harvest. The funny thing is the background sound of the working mix with the speech of Thomas.
Since we use the two speech to emphasize the specific activities happened on the site. They are the literally dialogue happened in the context.
The next step is the sound of the turbine merged with wind, it’s a beautiful dialogue between artificial and natural to us. Then we could hear the sound of footstep passing by the stone pathway. It can be treated as an interference by human being but in a good way. Or maybe we should call it involvement to give the whole scene more dynamic.
Then follows the water sound in the Oko Farm. It is the sound of the Aquaponics’ working cycle. In this loop, waste water from the fish tank provides nutrients for the plants while the plants clean the water for the fish. We use the representative water sound to indicate the energetic of this micro-ecosphere.
We end up with the whistle of the train passing by Nature walk. On one hand we hope use this to demonstrate the leaving of industrial waste and the coming of the rebirth of industrial warehouse and plot space.
We could not directly wipe away the industrial trace no matter it’s good or bad. It’s our history, we must live with it. So to live better, we should give our industrial landscape a brighter color.
