Here is my first audio portrait. It documents my 30 hour trip to Vienna. Some sounds that you will hear include babies wailing, my conversation with an attendant, an airport announcement in Hindi, the birds outside my apartment in Wein, and other sounds. I would strongly recommend using headphones to listen to this, you will get a much clearer picture that way.


It's gunna be close.

here are some pictures as well.

I am now on my way and have captured some interesting sounds durring my long flights through Newark, and London. I will edit them together and upload them when I get to vienna so that you can hear that which I have heard. Love to all.

I BELIEVE THAT THE USE OF NOISE

Wherever we are, what we hear is mostly noise. When we ignore it, it disturbs us. When we listen to it, We find it fascinating. The sound of a Truck fifty miles an hour. Static between the stations. Rain. We want to capture and control these sounds, to use them not as "sound effects" recorded on film... Given four film phonographs, we can compose ad perform a quartet for explosive motor, wind, heartbeat, and landslide.
