The newest audio portrait revised.

Some subtle changes. The ending is different. I extended his viola playing so the ending isn't as abrupt and I edited out the bit about him going to the dentist because it wasn't necessary.

Just really rough final project start. a sketch if you will

Here is my start on the final project. I interviewed my mom and dad over the phone about their relationship and this event specifically. I have a lot of work to do though to get from here to what I what my piece to turn out like when it is finished. Let me know what you think.

The Final Audio Portrait?

Another draft. Audio portrait.

Hey folks,
Here is another go at my audio portrait. I'm not sure about the ending or whether I should edit it down more. Let me know if you can before the weekend is over so I can fix it up before Monday. Thanks so much.

Reheaaallyy Rough Draft.

Okay guys, this by far is the most unsure I have been about any of these projects.

I am going home in a couple of weeks so I plan on making some more changes even after this. Hopefully it will not be as windy which brought about some technical difficulties last time over spring break. Anyway, I hope that you enjoy my piece and feel free to leave comments.

Sonic Haiku. Final Draft.

Here is my sonic haiku recorded in my hometown. I don't know if I captured what this place means to me but I tried. Let me know what you think.
