Description of Project
This audio assignment focuses on the exploration and investigation of the sounds of specific locations on Sheridan Campus. I have decided to record the sounds inside the girls’ washrooms. The washroom is an enclosed space where an individual should feel secure and comfortable. When one is inside a washroom, one tends to lose her vigilance and feels free to do whatever she desires (sneeze, cough, fix makeup, and talk about rumors). Having to record the sounds without the consciousness of the subjects, subjects tend to behave in their most natural manner. This piece focuses on the discovery of the sounds of a specific environment, and is interested in showing the invasion of people’s personal space as well as to challenge the moral standard over the issue of privacy.
