Design Exercise May 29th – Yasmine

Idea:

As a group we chose overpopulation as the focus of our projects. So I created a sound collage representing an overpopulation of music, sounds and nature sounds. Each sound is competing for space to be heard over the other sounds. 

Implementation: 

Audios from “freesound.org” were placed together on audacity. The sounds were shifted to start at different times, and the amplitude was adjusted so that the same sounds would be louder at some times more than others, because these sounds aren’t playing constantly all at once. The music fades out towards the end, so the end is less abrupt.
